how fast should i run a 10kHow fast should I run a 5k and a 10k?

Alright. So I was planning on running a 5k and a 10k pretty soon to see how fast I can do it. Unfortunately, I'm not a fast starter and usually don't push my boundaries to the limits. So I was wondering, what do you guys think I could do?

Half Marathon Pr-1:49:58
I usually average a 1:53-1:54 pace in my Halves and that is my pr.

Mile Pr-6:11 run barefoohow fast should i run a 10kt on the road in a training run
Usually can do 6:20-6:30 pretty easily.

And my 400m pr is like 1:20 which was done on a track in a Training Run.

What do you think I'm capable of?
You really won't know until you try them. Predicting one race based on another is very inaccurate, it doesn't take things like current training plan or natural ability/deshow fast should i run a 10kire into account.

I would say that a good target for a 5k is to try to break 21 minutes, and a good 10k target would be 44 minutes. You can't set a target that is too rigid for a distance you are not familiar with though.
5k you should get about 21:30

10k you should get about 44:30
