Pace Calculator

Convert a running or walking distance and elapsed time into pace per kilometre or mile and average speed. The result helps compare workouts recorded in different distance units, provided the entered duration is moving time. Pace = elapsed time ÷ distance. Speed = distance ÷ elapsed time. Unit conversion uses 1 mile = 1.609344 kilometres.

A familiar situation

Convert a training time and distance into pace per kilometre or mile before comparing workouts.

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter distance, distance unit, hours and the remaining inputs.
  2. Select Calculate to see the answer and its breakdown.
  3. Keep a scenario, change an input and compare the results.

Use consistent units and check the assumptions below before applying the result.

How pace is calculated

Pace = elapsed time ÷ distance. Speed = distance ÷ elapsed time. Unit conversion uses 1 mile = 1.609344 kilometres. Running 5 km in 25 minutes is a pace of 5:00 min/km and an average speed of 12 km/h.

Pace=time/distance; speed=distance/time.
A worked example

Running 5 km in 25 minutes is a pace of 5:00 min/km and an average speed of 12 km/h.

Assumptions & useful context

The result depends on the values you enter and the method described above. Displayed numbers may be rounded; calculations use the unrounded values. Check that this model matches your situation before relying on it.

Health calculations are estimates for education. They cannot diagnose a condition or replace a clinician’s assessment. Individual needs vary, especially during pregnancy, illness and growth.

Frequently asked questions

Does pace include stops?

It does if your entered time includes stops. Use moving time for moving pace.
