This chart shows the time for each of the eight 1 km runs, run 1 on the left: the typical finisher (solid line) and the fastest 25% (dashed).The typical finisher slowed a little from run 2 to run 7; the quickest was run 2 (4:45) and the slowest the first run (7:20).The fastest 25% were quicker on every run, by most on the first run (1:23 faster).

Run 1 and run 8 read long here (7:20 and 7:20 against about 5:01 for runs 2 to 7), because of where the timing mats sit, so the fair pacing test is run 2 against run 7. The typical finisher ran run 7 5% slower than run 2; the fastest 25%, 8% slower.
