Telling Me To Run WAY Too Fast?

I just ran PR'd my 10k at 50m45s and signed up for Runna after the race. I am doing a 3 week 'race recovery' plan and it's tell me to do all my easy runs between 5:00-6:00 minute /km pace. The thing is, it's even tell me that in three weeks, my first long run back should be at this pace. Is that not kind of insane? Sure a 6 minute pace is reasonable, but I'd say 5:50/ for an easy slow run would be my absolute fastest. But it's literally suggesting I should maybe run my long runs faster than my fastest ever 10k? Was excited for this app, but it's kind of offputting that it could get something so wrong to start.

Has anyone else faced this issue?
