Hi. I'm currently training for my first 10k in January and I'm struggling with running at a pace I can maintain. I know I can do 5k in about 31 mins but I know I can't maintain that pace for 10k.
I'd like to run the whole thing in 1 hour 10-20 mins so I ideally need to be running at 7 km per hour but I'm struggling to slow down and keep burning out instead around the 7km mark.
Does anyone have any tips on pacing yourself? At this rate I'll be walking the last couple of kms.
