Just got them today and I am dying to try them out! I have a 10k tomorrow. Should I wear them or wait and ease into them?

I'd say unless there's something wrong with the old shoes, use them instead, and ease the new ones into the rotation.

But don't listen to me -- I just wore new shoes for my 10 miler on Tuesday...

no, unless they are a new pair of the same shoes you had.

Conventional wisdom says no, but I am not one to talk.  Wore a new pair of flats for an Oly last year, a new pair of distance trainers for a half marathon in January, and my first run on a new pair of Asics was a 20 mile training run.  So don't listen to me!
