Congradulations on the running! Just go at a pace you feel comfortable at. Increase your pace over time when you can comfortably run a specific length over time (such as if you are going to imrove your 10k pace there is no point if you have only run it 2-3 times). Bit if there is no need to go faster..than don't. Just enjoy the fact that you are running.

Personally, I have noticed that as long as I run a specific pace at least 3k, I can continue it way past 10k. It all comes down to will. Muscles don't play a factor for me until the 20s even if I think they do at times

These are all great music selctions. Thank you! 170 bpm is about the pace of "Mr Blue Sky" or "American Idiot". I listen to all sorts of music when I train (not for actual races. Then no music at all!) but I prefer music that has 170 bpm-180 with a strong beat.

Here are three favorites atm:
