When running on an outdoor track does spike length matter? Will doing workouts in 3/8's inch spikes be detremental?

3/8" pyramid spikes are good options. So are 3/8 Christmas tree spikes. Depends on the type of track. You want the spikes to grip the track but not puncture the surface. A lot of runners prefer the Christmas tree spikes on Mondo surfaces. I prefer ceramic 3/8" or 6mm spikes.
Why would you ever wear 3/8 on a synthetic track? Just wear quarters.
