Should I wear my Newtons for a flat 5K?

Any suggestions? Or should I stick with lighter racing flats? I am a MOP runner averaging 7 minute miles. What would be my overall gain ina 5K? Any treadmill tests to show the performance?
Oh and I will be posting “Critique My Form” pictures soon…

i’d run just wearing their socks

With all the Newton bashing going on recently, I honestly can’t tell if you are serious or not. Sounds 'kinda like you are! If you are 7 min/mile 5Ker (unless female and or over 50), then I wouldn’t worry too much about a racing flat. Run in the damn Newtons - you paid for 'em!
