I think that aiming 1/3 of the way in the runways because you may have an engine failure is misguided. It is SOOOO unlikely that your engine is going to fail at or about idle power. It is under the most stress on a go-around, with an engine failure at this point you will be grateful of any runway ahead of you!

Just my thoughts.
