Well, that's close to the right pace. You could ease up slighly and still break 5 minutes. Just 1/5th to go. I'm going to start incorporating some speedwork on Wednesdays.

About a month ago I started doing 5 reps of a fifth mile. The next week I did two fifths, then 3, this week 4. Next week I will try the entire mile!

Good luck. I tried a fast mile the other day and could only hold the 5 minute pace for a quarter. It's amazing how quick that feels now.
