The course time limit for the full marat hon is based on a 13:00 minute per mile pace, which is a light jog. This eq uates to roughly a 5:40:00 marathon. The time limit for the half marathon i s based on a 23:40 minute per mile pace, which is a leisurely walking pace. This equates to roughly a 5:10:00 half marathon.
