Pace for Upcoming Mile Based on Workout

High School Running

Just wondering what pace I should go out in for the mile at an upcoming meet. The meet is in two weeks and is the first one of the year. Last week I had a mile repeat workout and my splits were as follows with 5 minutes between reps:

1) 5:04

2) 4:57

3) 5:06

4) 5:00

During the workout it was fairly windy and cold out which made running the back 200 a drag and it was difficult making my splits. I was also wearing leggings, long sleeve t-shirt, hat and gloves if that makes any difference. Just wondering what I would be capable of all out if its not cold/windy and I'm wearing my uniform. I was going to shoot for a 4:48 with even splits. What do you think?

4:50 pace. Hit 72 and 2:24 for your first 400 and 800 then race.

I honestly think you're in 4:40 shape. I run in the mid 4:50s and probably could only manage about 5:12-5:15 for this workout. It's the first meet, go out in 2:20 and see what you can do.
