Denver Marathon Pace Calculator & Race Plan

Denver runs at 5,280 feet of elevation, which adds a measurable cost to your pace. If you're coming from sea level, expect a 2-4% performance hit from altitude alone, on top of whatever the course and weather throw at you.

The course has 217 meters of gain with rolling hills throughout. Our model includes altitude adjustment based on the start elevation, so your splits reflect what a mile at altitude actually feels like.
