Okay so what I have gathered is just keep a pace and breathe in from your mouth and out through your nose.

I don't know. I am average in the athletic field and I can always force myself through the pain until I feel like I am going to die. I really want to beat my 11 minutes, and I have been working on my endurance since fall, so I think I can do a solid 8 1/2 or 9.

Try breathing with your nose only, like a boxer. It slows down your heartbeat and calms down your body, which works a little like a diazepam.

Drink water, and bring a gronala bar. That helps.

Your best bet is to bring water and stretch them leg muscles.

If they allow it bring water with you to drink during the run

Also bring a watch

Inhale through your nose and breathe out through your mouth

Try.
No, really.
Just go out there and try. Do your best. Do what you can. I'm sure you've heard people say, "If you tell yourself you can't do it, you'll never be able to." There's a lot of truth to that.
Just go out there and try your hardest. Good luck.

Usually you are supposed to drink only a little at the beginning because you can get cramps.

It's always nice to have a bar and a nice cold water when you head is pulsing and you are lying on your back, dying :).

Are there any ways to distract yourself?

Why would I waste time drinking during the race?

Also, it doesn't make sense to allow a person who is obsessed with getting stuff done before the due date a watch during the mile run. I did that in 5th grade and I tired myself out in the first 4 minutes :v

Well you don't but it can take you away from your pace and breathing stuff.

Whatever.
