Running 5K in Daegu
Using these routes for 5K training
Anything between 3 and 7 km works for a 5K block. Use the shorter loops for interval sessions where you want to repeat the same stretch, and the 6–7 km options as easy recovery runs.
Picking by elevation
Flat routes give you repeatable splits, which matters when you are chasing a time. Routes with more climbing are better as strength sessions — expect to run 20–40 seconds per kilometre slower for the same effort.
