How steady should a steady run be?

2011/04/28 at 14:36PM by Steve

As I completed my run last night, I got thinking about what pace a steady run should be? I managed 6.45 miles in 39.50 minutes which works out at approx 6.10 minutes per mile, so is that steady, too slow or too fast? Obviously it depends on the standard each runner is at, but sometimes I'll do the same run over the golf course and feel like I'm flying and other times I'll feel terrible!

It's another run in the bank, 16 miles for the week so far with a tempo run scheduled for tonight. Nike Air Span Triax were the shoes of choice last night, they have never sold that well in the shop but I have had several pairs now and they work well for me.
