Pace?
Hi! everyone. Could you enlighten me about this sense of the word "pace"?
"http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=to http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=establish http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=a http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=speed http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=for http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=another http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=runner http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=in http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=a http://www.macmillandictionary.com/search/british/direct/?q=race"
Does it mean setting a speed that other racers try to gain?
Thanks!
