How to read the chart

Use the finish-time rows to find a realistic half marathon target, then compare the pace per mile and pace per kilometer columns.

The checkpoint table is useful when you want more than a final time: it shows whether your midpoint and late-race targets line up with the average pace.

Pick a goal range

2:00:00 is the prefilled example on this page, but the chart rows show a broader range so you can scan faster and slower goals without retyping values.

Training and race use

For training, compare workout pace to the half marathon rows. For racing, use the split table above when you need mile-by-mile or kilometer-by-kilometer elapsed times.
