What is the true pace for the elite walking mile for a 57-year old woman?

The "elite" or world-record pace for a 57-year-old woman in a one-mile race walk event is approximately a 7 minutes and 49 seconds per mile pace (or faster). This pace is derived from competitive event results, as specific mile records are often extrapolated from standard race distances like the 1,500m, 3,000m, or 5,000m. 

For example, a prominent elite athlete, Michelle Rohl, has set multiple Masters American and World records in the 55-59 age group. Her performance in a 3000m race walk in 2024 (at age 59) was a record-setting 14:19, which translates to a pace of roughly 7:41 per mile. Another result from a 2021 competition shows a 57-year-old woman, Flor Chirino-Klevans, finishing an 8-minute race walk event with an average pace of 8:52 per mile.
