When I run on a tread mill I can run three miles in about 27 minutes with a peak pace of about an eight minute mile or 7.5 mph for about a mile. When I run outside on a track I can run three miles in about 28 minutes with a peak pace of about 7.5 mph for about a quarter of a mile. I can usually get back to 7.5 after recovering at a slower pace. I use a GPS watch when I run outside.
When I run outside I find the wind is a big issue. Running against the wind to me seems more of a drain than running with the wind is a bonus. Also, cold weather lowers my times outside. Real hot weather affects my endurance, the last half of mile is a killer when its hot. I am pretty consistant on a tread mill. When I run outside, if other people are running for some reason my times a usually better.
If I were you I would train in the conditions you will face when you take the test, just to be safe.
