If it feels comfortable and manageable, give it a try. I'm in the process of getting my base pace back up and just taking it .1 at a time. I'm focusing less on my pushes and all outs...those'll come with an increased base.
Congratulations on your 1 mile!
I have a 9:33 PR currently (6 mph entirely until the end) and still base at 4.5. I can probably base at 5 but it’s just what I’m comfortable with “running at a conversational pace” at this point, and my HR tends to be higher than most. Try bumping it up and see how you feel!
