Reading 6:00:00
Six hours is where this chart starts bumping into course clocks. 6:00:00 is 13:43.8 per mile and 8:31.9 per kilometer. Some marathons sweep near six hours and some allow longer. The pace math still finishes at six hours either way. Only the race can tell you whether you are allowed to.
Halfway at even pace is 3:00:00, the 3:00:00 row on the half marathon pace chart. That chart continues to 3:30, so the split is on it. The marathon risk at six hours is the second half meeting a cutoff, which a 3:00 half does not tell you.
A two-minute negative split does not create spare time. The finish is still 6:00:00. Halfway would be 3:01:00 instead of 3:00:00, and the second half 2:59:00. If the limit is six hours, you do not have two minutes to lend the first half. Even pace is the cutoff-relevant number.
Starting from little running and pointing at six hours fits the beginner marathon schedule. Read the race's time limit before race week. A schedule that peaks at 28 km does not keep a course open.
