About the Pace Calculator
The Pace Calculator helps runners, walkers, and athletes determine their running or walking pace based on distance and time. Whether you're training for a 5K, marathon, or just want to track your fitness progress, this calculator provides accurate pace and speed measurements.
What is Pace?
Pace is the time it takes to cover a specific distance, typically measured in minutes per mile or minutes per kilometer. It's the inverse of speed—while speed tells you how fast you're going (distance per time), pace tells you how much time it takes to cover a unit of distance.
How to Use This Calculator
- Enter the distance you ran or walked
- Select your distance unit (miles, kilometers, or meters)
- Enter the time it took (hours, minutes, and seconds)
- View your calculated pace per mile and kilometer
- Check your speed in both MPH and KPH
Formula
Pace (min/mile) = Total Time (minutes) ÷ Distance (miles)
Speed (mph) = Distance (miles) ÷ Total Time (hours)
Example Calculation
If you ran 5 miles in 40 minutes:
Pace: 40 minutes ÷ 5 miles = 8:00 per mile
Speed: 5 miles ÷ 0.667 hours = 7.5 mph
Training Tips
- Track your pace over time to monitor fitness improvements
- Use pace to plan race strategies and training runs
- Vary your pace during training (easy runs, tempo runs, intervals)
- Remember that elevation, weather, and terrain affect pace
- Start with comfortable paces and gradually increase intensity
