Your target and its pace

A 0:20:00 finish over 5 km corresponds to 4:00/km or 6:26/mi when shown to the nearest second. This page uses an even pace: equal distances receive equal shares of the original target time.

This target divides into five exact four-minute kilometres. The 2.5 km halfway row sits between the second and third regular kilometre markers. If you prefer a track reference, 12 complete 400 m laps take 19:12 and the remaining 200 m takes 0:48.

Check the cumulative splits

The cumulative split table includes each whole kilometre, halfway if it is a separate marker, and one exact finish. These values are elapsed time since the start. Changing the display unit relabels those same checkpoints; it does not move them to whole-mile markers.

Read the final segment

The last whole-kilometre checkpoint before the finish is 4 km at 0:16:00. The remaining 1,000 m takes 0:04:00 when rounded separately. Adjacent displayed values can differ by one second from a separately rounded segment; the original target is not adjusted to hide that effect.

Edit the plan or make a band

Open this target in the split calculator to change the marker interval or display unit. In the pace-band maker, choose A4 or Letter, a band size and a short label. Preview all strips and check the finish before exporting. The preset starts at an even allocation; any two-half change should be an explicit choice.
