These are estimates from the Riegel formula, T2 = T1 × (D2 ÷ D1)^1.06. They assume you’ve trained for the other distance, so treat them as a guide, not a promise.

From 40 to 45 minutes, kilometres 6 to 8 are the hard part

Run the first half on goal pace. Between 6 and 8 km the effort climbs, and that’s where the pace must not drop.

A weekly session of 1 to 2 km repeats at goal pace teaches you the rhythm. Add one longer easy run each week.

No fuel needed during the race. Take a drink at the station if it’s warm.

Pace questions runners ask

What pace do I need for a 43:00 10K?
A 43:00 10K is 4:18/km (6:55/mi), 14.0 km/h, held for the whole race.
What treadmill speed is 43:00 10K pace?
Set the treadmill to 14.0 km/h or 8.7 mph to run 4:18/km (6:55/mi).
Where should I be at halfway in a 43:00 10K?
With even pacing you pass halfway in 21:30; with a negative split, a little later.
What does a 43:00 10K predict for other distances?
The Riegel formula estimates 20:37 for the 5K, 1:11:12 for the 10-mile race, 1:34:53 for the half marathon, 3:17:49 for the marathon, assuming you’ve trained for each distance.
