Answer 2

Yes! it's worth it if you are wearing for competition on the track.

It will take about 1 to 2 sec depends on your speed.

Answer 3

Spikes are worth it if you're a serious runner and not doing it for a joke. They dig into the track making your step lighter and quicker so you will run faster. For the 200 you'd probably be able to get a 20.20 or less.
