Frequently asked questions

What is marathon pace?

It is the average pace a runner needs to hold to finish a marathon in a target time.

How accurate is the split table?

It is a practical planning tool, not a guarantee of your exact race-day pacing. Conditions, fueling, and fatigue matter.

Can I use this for training runs?

Yes, but it is designed for marathon-specific pacing rather than everyday training paces.

What inputs do I need?

Enter either a target finish time or a known pace per kilometre, and the calculator derives the other values.
