Reading 3:15:00

3:15:00 shows up as a second-marathon goal more often than as a first. The pace, 7:26.2 per mile and 4:37.3 per kilometer, is quicker than a jog and slower than the three-hour chase. People land here when 3:30 felt comfortable and 3:10 still feels like someone else's race.

Even pace splits the race at 1:37:30. That is not a five-minute row on the half chart: 1:35:00 is faster and 1:40:00 is slower. If your half best is 1:40, you are not yet showing the midpoint this marathon needs.

Default negative pace reaches halfway at 1:38:30 and finishes the second half in 1:36:30. The two-minute swing is small on a 3:15 clock and still moves you off 1:37:30, which is the even halfway for this exact finish. Use even when you want the chart, and negative only when the slower start is a choice.

The schedule built for an existing 8 km easy run is the 20-week marathon schedule. It peaks the long run at 30 km, which is support for a second or third marathon, not a first one that starts from walking.

The marathon preset is 42.195 km · 26.2188 mi. Splits include the last 0.195 km and 0.2188 mi.
