Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good running pace?
For beginners: 8–10 min/km (13–16 min/mile) is perfectly fine. Intermediate runners average 5–7 min/km. Elite runners race at under 3 min/km.
What pace do I need for a sub-30 minute 5K?
You need to run at 6:00 min/km (9:39 min/mile) or faster.
What pace do I need for a 2-hour half marathon?
You need to average 5:41 min/km (9:09 min/mile).
How can I improve my running pace?
Mix easy runs with interval training and one long run per week. Consistency matters more than intensity — most improvements come from running more often, not faster.
