Frequently Asked Questions — 1 Mile (1.61 km) in 9 Min
What pace per km and per mile is needed for a 9-minute 1 Mile (1.61 km)?
To finish a 1 Mile (1.61 km) in 9 minutes, you must maintain an average pace of 5:36 per kilometer (9:00 per mile), which equals an average running speed of 10.73 km/h (6.67 mph) and 134 seconds per 400m track lap.
Should I run an even split or a negative split for a 9-minute 1 Mile (1.61 km)?
Exercise physiology studies show a 1% to 2% negative split (running the first half ~2–3 seconds per km slower than 5:36/km and accelerating in the final third) minimizes early lactate accumulation and glycogen depletion.
