What pace should you run a 5k in?

When you run a 5k or any other long distances, you have to pace yourself well unless you want to die out in the first mile. It's important to think these things through before the last minute. You should run at a good, fast  pace (6:30-7:15 minute mile) the first mile. For your secind mile, you try maintaining that pace and if you can't, you can slow down just a bit. The last mile you have, push yourself to your fullest and try sprinting the the 200. Doing this will help you stay on top and not die out or save too much.
