The difference between race pace and easy pace can vary significantly depending on the runner's experience and the specific race distance. Generally, race pace is considerably faster than easy pace, often by about 1 to 3 minutes per mile, as it is the pace a runner aims to maintain during a race, while easy pace is a comfortable speed used for recovery and endurance-building. However, the exact difference depends on the individual's fitness level and training plan.
