This form will generate a marathon pace band . Some of the key options are:* '''Safety Margin'''. If this is not zero then you will generate get three lists of split times; an even split and two ** '''Safe''safety margin' splits. The middle list is the safety margin splits run the race . This list uses a slightly faster pace in the first half, so you reach the 13.1 mile mark either one or two minutes ahead of even pacewith the safety margin. After From then on, you run the half-way point, all three use even pace splits to maintain the endmargin. ** '''Target.''' The target list uses even splits. ** '''2Fast. I aim to be between ''' The 2Fast list uses twice the one and two minute safety marginsmargin, which is faster than recommended. You can use Like the safety list, it uses even splits for the second half of the [[VDOT Calculator]] to estimate your marathon time from a shorter race. =Example=** The three lists can be further modified by the slow start and fade parameters.** An example may help explain this approach. For a 3:15 marathon, you need to run a 7:26 pace. The column marked '0 mintarget' uses that split time throughout the race. To have a one minute safety margin, run a 7:21 pace for the first 13.1 miles, arriving at the half-way point in 1:36:30, one minute ahead of schedule. Then run 7:26 for the rest of the race to maintain the one minute safety margin. The 2 minute safety margin works * '''Slow Start'''. If you plan to start a little slower, you can set how much slower your first mile will be, and over how many miles you want to ease into your target pace. ** '''Example''': If you set the slow pace to 60 seconds and slow distance to 4 miles, your first four miles will be 60 seconds, 45 seconds, 30 seconds and 15 seconds slower respectively. Your remaining miles will be faster to make up the same waylost time. * '''Fade'''. Like slow start, but uses a 7you can set the pace band for slowing up in the last miles. ** '''Example''':17 If you set the fade pace to give 60 seconds and fade distance to 4 miles, your last four miles will be 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 45 seconds and 60 seconds slower respectively. Your remaining miles will be faster to make up the extra minutelost time. =Input Form=
