15-mile pace questions
Why is the 15-mile pace chart useful?
15 miles is a common long-run distance in marathon training programmes. Knowing your 15-mile pace helps you gauge marathon readiness — your marathon pace should be close to or slightly slower than your comfortable 15-mile pace.
What pace should I run my 15-mile training run?
Long training runs should be at easy or conversational pace — typically 45–90 seconds per km slower than your goal race pace. If targeting a 5:00/km marathon, run your 15-miler at roughly 5:45–6:30/km.
How do I predict marathon time from a 15-mile run?
Your comfortable 15-mile pace is a useful indicator of marathon fitness. Add roughly 15–30 seconds per km to your 15-mile easy pace to estimate your sustainable marathon race pace.
