Can you run in a road race in XC spikes without the actual spikes screwed in of course? I only recently got the spikes for track so the longest I've gone in them is 2 miles on a track but do you think that I could go for 5k on a road in them comfortably? They're not aggressive at all and very comfy. If I do decide to race in them on the road, do I need something to plug up the spike holes? Thanks in advance
