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.

What shoes should I wear for a road race?

Road running shoes with good cushioning and support are ideal. Look for shoes designed for your gait pattern (neutral, stability, or motion control). If you're racing for time, consider lighter racing flats or carbon-plated shoes, though these require breaking in before race day.
