At a pace of 10:00 per mile, your estimated finish time for a marathon (42.2 kilometers / 26.2 miles) is approximately 04:22:11.
This is considered a beginner-friendly pace for a marathon. Whether it's competitive or comfortable depends on your training and race goals.
At 10:00 per mile, it takes approximately 04:22:11 to complete a full marathon.
10:00 min/mile is a steady and beginner-friendly pace for marathoners, often used by runners targeting a specific goal or aiming to finish comfortably.
The main reason runners use a marathon pace calculator is to find out how fast they need to run in order to achieve their race finish time goal.
For example, if your goal is to run a marathon in under 4 hours, you would use the pace calculator to determine the pace you need to run in order to achieve that goal.
So if your pace during training has been consistently 9:00 minutes per mile, entering that time into the calculator would show that at a 9:00 per mile pace, your marathon finish time would be 3:55:58 -- comfortably under your sub-4 hour goal!
The pace calculator also makes it easy to play around with different paces to see how they impact your overall time. Just seeing the difference in finish times between a 7:50 and 8:00 pace per mile marathon time can give you perspective on the impact of raising or lowering your marathon pace.
To calculate your running pace, use this formula:
Pace = Time / Distance
Stated another way, divide your run time in minutes by the distance.
Here are a few examples:
According to statistics compiled by RunRepeat of runners worldwide, the average marathon finish time for men is 4:21:03 while the average marathon finish time for women is 4:48:45.
Here are the average marathon finish times broken down by age as compiled by researches at RunnerClick using data available from 2014 to 2017.
