Marathon Pace Chart, Letter
Marathon training paces cluster between 4:00 and 8:00 per mile for competitive recreational through BQ chasers. This competitive-range chart uses 15-second steps so 6:30/mi and 6:45/mi sit on separate rows — finer than the full-spectrum poster.
Use it during winter treadmill blocks when the group text says "marathon pace" but the belt lists mph. Highlight your goal marathon pace below (many runners target 7:00–9:00/mi) before printing.
On race day you still want cumulative mile splits — generate a pace band for the exact finish time instead of this lookup table.
