Frequently asked questions

What is a good pace for beginners?

It varies widely by fitness level; the goal is a sustainable, conversational pace rather than a specific number.

Are the race-time predictions accurate for a full marathon?

They assume a constant pace, which most runners cannot hold over 42 km, so treat marathon predictions as optimistic estimates.

Can I use this in miles instead of kilometers?

The calculator works in kilometers; multiply your mile pace by 1.60934 to convert it to pace per kilometer first.
