Duathlon - pedal options

Hi, any advice much appreciated.
I'm doing my first Duathlon shortly - 7k run, 25k bike, 7k run (road). Running is my stronger discipline although I'm used to cycling with SPDs. My cycling shoes are three strap and v. difficult to get on/off on the move.
For my first duathlon, do you think it will be worthwhile investing in a decent pair of tri bike shoes or just stick to cages on some flat pedals?
I have no chance before this first race to practice putting any tri shoes on whilst on the go.
Either way, any recommended products would be a big help.
Thanks a lot.

thanks for reply. I've looked at the Pyros but couldn't justify ~ £90 for my first duathlon race. I'm also doing some tri's this year so will prob buy some tri specific shoes.
as the race is this w/e I think I'll go with some flat pedals and clips for now, a safe bet I hope.
Cheers
