you need to eventually develop a sense of how near your limit you are, and slow down as you approach that limit. If you're not near it, you need to speed up. This might take a while, I'm still working on it.
Thanks for the tip, ape. What sort of time would be ideal for a mile that won't lead premature exhaustion like I've described before. I was under the impression that doing a mile and half in under 13 minutes is ideal. Of course, I'm completely dumb with running. I really want to get better at this and possibly do a road-race down the..., well, road.
