Frequently Asked Questions — 10K (10.0 km / 6.21 mi) in 46 Min
What pace per km and per mile is needed for a 46-minute 10K (10.0 km / 6.21 mi)?
To finish a 10K (10.0 km / 6.21 mi) in 46 minutes, you must maintain an average pace of 4:36 per kilometer (7:24 per mile), which equals an average running speed of 13.04 km/h (8.10 mph) and 110 seconds per 400m track lap.
Should I run an even split or a negative split for a 46-minute 10K (10.0 km / 6.21 mi)?
Exercise physiology studies show a 1% to 2% negative split (running the first half ~2–3 seconds per km slower than 4:36/km and accelerating in the final third) minimizes early lactate accumulation and glycogen depletion.
