A running pace chart connects a finish time with the pace needed for every kilometer or mile. It removes the arithmetic from race planning, but the useful part is not just the average pace. Checkpoints show whether the first half of the race is matching the plan.
Use the chart to choose a pace band, then use the splits calculator for a more detailed printable table. If the course is hilly or the weather is unusual, treat the chart as a target band rather than a guarantee that every kilometer will feel identical.

Metric and imperial pace
Every chart includes both minutes per kilometer and minutes per mile because race organizers, watches, treadmills, and training plans mix the two conventions. A pace per mile is always a larger number than the equivalent pace per kilometer because a mile is 1.609344 kilometers.
