"Off the pace" = giảm tốc độ -> đứng ngoài cuộc đua, cuộc thi/ đứng sau vị trí lãnh đạo. 

Ví dụ 
West Ham midfielder (tiền vệ) Jack Wilshere looks so off the pace it's hard to see him getting back on track (trở lại cuộc đua). 

Assistant manager Richard Hughes admitted Academy were off the pace as they were swept aside (bị gạt ra một bên) by a five-star Formartine display. 

O’Rourke is off the pace in the Democratic field, sixth in the realclearpolitics.com national polling average (trung bình phiếu). But his campaigning (chiến dịch tranh cử) has gained new urgency (gấp rút) and his attacks on Trump new vigour (mạnh mẽ) since the shooting in the city he represented in the US House from 2013 to the start of this year.
