    I just wanted to know if there was a "correct" time. But after reading y'alls replies it makes me feel better to know that time doesn't really matter. As long as I can run it without being out of breath, I am okay with it.

    All depends on context for the individual, and sustaining the pace for the required distance. For me, that pace would be pretty disappointing were I doing my military fitness test, although I'd pass, but for your age range you'd fail. Sustaining that for a 10K trail race I'd be comfortable with and for a trail half marathon I'd be pretty happy.

    But as upthread, its about you, not me. I train to run long distances so my outlook is going to be very different to yours.
