Half Marathon Pace Calculator

Beginners: 2:15-2:45. Intermediate: 1:45-2:15. Advanced: 1:25-1:45. Elite: under 1:05 (men) / under 1:10 (women). The average half marathon finish time is about 2:00-2:10.

Sub-2-hour requires 9:09/mile or 5:41/km pace. This is a common goal for intermediate runners. You'll need to maintain that pace consistently for 13.1 miles.

Proper pacing is key — start conservatively. Fuel with carbs before the race and take gels or sports drink at miles 6-8. Train with long runs of 10-13 miles. Don't try anything new on race day.
