How to use this benchmark

1. Benchmark

Compare your current score to this segment so you know whether you are below average, competitive, or already in elite territory.

2. Train

Use the recommended drills and action steps below for two to four weeks, then test again under similar conditions.

3. Track

Pro is useful when you want unlimited daily runs and deeper score history instead of treating the site as a one-off benchmark.
