Some sessions will be split into Gears. See use the calculator below to make sure you put yourself in the correct group to match your ability.
If the run is longer distance or more challenging terrain (off road or hills) or just a social run then the pace is expected to be slower.
Please bear in mind these are just guidelines. If you've never run 5k or are just not sure, please seek advice from one of the leaders.
