At what point are you exiting the terminal?

Wrong time.
there is a whole 'nother section of texts that it goes through after it makes the alarm sound and turns red. You have to sit through (A button) the entire sequence for each terminal in order to get Marathon Man.
Just replay those levels in the same difficulty and same whether it was co-op or solo. Do not deviate, it will all rest if you do.
Do not use check points either. Play the whole level.

Ok, thank you so much. Do I have to do the levels inbetween the terminal missions?

Nope. Just skip to the levels that have them. Right when you leave the terminal, you can save and quit and go to a new one (give it a few seconds just to be safe).

And yep. Just wait maybe 5-10 seconds after the red. The terminal will then start to freak out on you and eventually new text will appear (this text has no time limit). Go to the last page of the new text and you'll have it count.

No.
Just do the 3 on The Ark, the 3 on Covenant, skip Cortana, and do the last one on Halo. They don't even really have to be in level order, but I wouldn't jinx it by going backward in level order, just in case.

Edit:
You're welcome.
And in my first post rest should have been reset.
