We've just signed up for the Westminster Mile for the first time. You have to estimate your times for the race so you start with people of similar speed. I haven't run 'just' a mile since the C25K and really struggle to estimate..... We've opted for 10 minutes approx. based on a 5k time of 33 minutes.
What would your guesstimate times be? Anyone completed the Westminster mile before? Were you faster or slower than you thought you'd be? π

Whatever you do don't make the same mistake I did last year, I put my km time down by mistake. I had to kindly ask if they could change my start time whoops! If you use a garmin you can just swap it over for a bit on garmin connect and it will tell you your mile time.
Oh, this will be great! I did the City of London mile a few years back and had to do the same thing - estimate my time. I didn't have a clue, but went and ran a mile and then used that as my time. I came in faster on the day, but it gave me a start point at least.
Hmmm... might sign up for this one now, thank you!
