• Trying to qualify for Boston? A mileage vs. speed calculator Boston Marathon Qualifying Times Chart and Predictor.  An interesting take on calculators: For me: (for 100 miles per week) The slowest you can run and still qualify for the Boston Marathon is 3:10:59.  This is a 7:17 per mile pace.  If you train at 100 miles per week, you need......
