For regular runners, a pace of 5 minutes is considered a threshold, and this level is considered to be above average in the running lap.
So is a 5-minute pace fast?
It depends on how you think about it, 5 minutes 1 km, that is, 5 km takes 25 minutes.
Looking at it this way, it doesn't feel like it's okay, but if you really want to talk about it, there are a lot of people who run in laps for less than 25 minutes.
Two days ago, I saw such a picture on the Internet, taking 5 kilometers as an example, dividing several gears for mass runners:
Whether it looks like the description is quite real, but realistically speaking, it depends on age and gender.
After all, male and female runners are different in age and physical condition!
So I went online to find out the level of different age groups, such as the following pace reference table for male runners under the age of 50:
You can follow up with similar ages and make an estimate.
Overall, the average pace of 5 minutes is about the average level for both men and women.
Of course, the purpose of grading is to better distinguish performance and adjust the training plan, but don't blindly pursue the pace because of the existence of the grade!
So here I also want to remind everyone, when running:
First,It must be gradual, the improvement of speed is of course a demonstration of ability, but running healthy is the focus;
Second,For the general public, speed is just a number, and running comfortably is the best pace.
I've seen a lot of people who can't run because of training injuries in the blind pursuit of speed, and I've seen a lot of people who are still happy running 6 points and 7 points.
Speed is just a synonym for running, not fast is good, often jogging is the true essence of running.
Just try to be yourself!
In my personal experience, I think the first thing is to run out of volume, followed by more training intervals and strength, and in about 2-3 months, the pace can be faster.
If you often participate in running group activities, you will find that those who run 5 speed will grab a lot of them, especially within 5 speed, and will be called "gods" by the runners around you.
If you want to change from quantity to quality, you can also ask them for more experience.
A pace of 5 is an extremely effective watershed moment in the running process, and runners under 5 are often hard-working and serious.
For runners other than the 5 allocated speed, the daily training is basically not so systematic, which is more scientific planning and training for many runners who dream of breaking the average pace of 5 points.
How so? The pace of 5 points can be said to be "the great god of running scum, the running scumbag of the great gods".
In short, 5 points is fast and it is fast, and slow is not slow, I don't know if for you who love to run, your average pace has reached 5 points?
