I just finished a 5.323km run that lasted about 0hh:33mm:38ss !
It didn't feel like this when I was doing it though. I was generally aware that I was running consistently slightly faster, but looking at the record of my pace, I can see that it varies quite a bit. There are bits (the bridge by the rowing club, the long but gently uphill bit by the allotments, the bit after the other bridge) where I slowed right down. These were partly about the terrain and other people. To say that if everything were completely flat and free of other people then I'd run faster is a bit empty. Thing is what's going on in my head - which is that I think I'm running at the slowest pace, my brain can't average out in the moment, and so I give myself a push and then tire. This is a picture of someone running at the edge of their capability, not well within their comfort I suppose.
Another lovely day done and another few seconds shaved off.
