What kind of pace is 13:00/mi?

Whether 13:00 per mile is fast or easy depends entirely on how far you run it. The table treats it as your race pace for each distance and shows the fitness (VDOT) that implies, the marathon that fitness supports, and the easy pace such a runner would use in training.

Holding the same pace for longer is what makes longer races hard — most runners run a marathon 30–60 seconds per km slower than their 5K pace.

On the treadmill

Set the belt to 7.4 km/h (4.6 mph). Most treadmills adjust in 0.1 steps, so you may need to round. For outdoor-equivalent effort at this speed, many runners add a 1 % incline — see the treadmill pace calculator for the effect of any incline.
