Pittsburgh Marathon Pace Calculator & Race Plan

Pittsburgh's marathon crosses multiple bridges and climbs through neighborhoods like the Strip District, Oakland, and Shadyside. The course has about 930 feet of total gain spread across rolling terrain that never lets you settle into a flat rhythm. The South Side stretch along Carson Street is deceptively hilly.

May weather in Pittsburgh can range from cool rain to warm sun. Our model adjusts for the cumulative effect of the rollers and the conditions, giving you realistic splits that account for the terrain you actually run.
