Questions

How should I pace myself in a 5K?

Start slightly slower than your target pace for the first kilometer 1 to avoid going out too fast. Settle into your goal pace for kilometers 2-4, then give everything you have left for the final kilometer. The 5K is short enough to push hard but long enough to require pacing discipline.
