What is a good 10K time?▾
The average US 10K finish time is around 55-60 minutes. Competitive runners aim for sub-45 minutes, while beginners often target finishing under 1 hour 10 minutes.
How do I train for a 10K?▾
A typical 10K training plan is 8-10 weeks with 3-4 runs per week, including one longer run that builds to 6-7 miles. If you can comfortably run a 5K, you are ready to start training for a 10K.
