Hi guys !! Just a quick one here - what are , relative to your 'race pace' times,the times YOU aim for, on your 'tempo' ,and 'easy pace' runs ? Interested if Im setting the bar too high for the two 'slower' pace runs .ie for 5K my 'race pace', is 6:08/km - I,ve set my tempo pace at 6:44/Km and 'easy pace' at 7:24/Km - interested in your own experiences and your opinion on my 'pace setting' !!
If you gonna do it , do it right ๐ถ - Bridge to 10K
If you gonna do it , do it right ๐ถ

It's up to you how comfortable you are with your pace, many people are comfortable with a sub 6km pace both for a 5k and 10k race as they know that will get them a sub 30 minute or sub 60 minutes time respectively, others like the sub 7km pace as that is around a sub 35 minute 5K. I agree, a 7.24km pace is certainly comfortable, that is around 37 minutes 5K.

My paces wonโt help you... this might runnersworld.com/training/a... only ever compare yourself with the previous you.
Well, your slow pace would be too fast for me, but that doesn't mean it's wrong for you. Sorry not very helpful ๐ณ

My 5k race pace is 5 min/k, tempo 6, easy 7โ30โ - compared to those and given your 6+ race pace, your other speeds seem pretty quick, but really itโs each to his own ๐ค
