Start with 10 min fast walking as a warm-up. And finish with 5 min gentle running.
You can use the first few km of the race as the final part of your warm-up.

To make sure you achieve your desired time, start the "classic" session on your app, at the very beginning.

Don't set out too quickly otherwise you'll find the last few kilometres difficult. Try to stick to the required pace, 9.8km/h.

Try to enjoy yourself even if you have to push yourself a little in order to finish.

Take your place on the start line 5 to 10 minutes before the scheduled race start time.
Avoid joining the first few rows so that you don't have to set off too quickly but make sure you're not at the back of the main pack either.

When the going gets tough, remember the sense of pride and joy you'll feel when you cross the finish line. You haven't done all this preparation just to stop at the very last minute.
