  • Not sure but looked around and found a general guide regarding gradually increasing times.. much online in this regard :) http://www.teamoregon.com/publications/race10k.html
  • I think as people get well into the beginner stage they are happy when they break 1 hour, but I think men getting under 8 minute miles (around 50 minutes) starts to peg you as growing past beginner into intermediate.
  • Squid is right about this - but a lot of it will also depend on your age. Anything above 50% on the WMA Tables below http://www.momentumsports.co.uk/TtWMATable.asp could be considered to bring a beginner up to intermediate level.
  • I'm doing a couple of 10k runs this summer, and I'll be aiming for under an hour. Last year, I did my first 10k in 70 mins, which at the time I was happy with. Try using www.gmap-pedometer.com to plot runs and then time yourself to get an idea of how well you're doing.
  • i would say around 42-44 mins for an intermediate runer but obviously this figure would raise rapidly if you were 80 but anyone under 60 should be able to run that time if in good shape> istarted running 5 years ago at 40 and was a smoker until recently and can easily run 36.30 for 10k so i think that 42-44 is more than realistic
