   * 13 min/mile pace finishing 10K in around 1 hour 20 minutes
    * 12 min/mile pace finishing 10K in 1 hour 15 minutes
    * 11 min/mile pace finishing 10K in 1 hour 8 minutes
    * 10 min/mile pace finishing 10K in 62 minutes

Running faster than a 10 min/mile pace will allow runners to break the one hour for a 10K barrier:

    * 9 min/mile pace finishing 10K in about 56 minutes
    * 8 min/mile pace finishing 10K in around 50 minutes
    * 7min/mile pace finishing 10K in about 43 minutes
    * 6 min/mile pace finishing 10K in around 37 minutes
