What this tool does

Pace is the time it takes to cover one unit of distance, shown here in minutes and seconds; speed is the distance covered in one hour. Both are calculated directly from the distance and finish time you enter, in whatever distance unit you used, such as kilometers or miles.

How to use it

  1. Enter the distance covered.
  2. Enter the finish time as hours, minutes and seconds.
  3. Read the pace per distance unit and the average speed.

Frequently asked questions

What unit is the pace in?
Whatever distance unit you entered. If you enter distance in kilometers, the pace is minutes per kilometer; if you enter miles, it is minutes per mile.
How is speed calculated?
Speed is the distance divided by the finish time converted to hours, so it comes out in distance units per hour, matching common race-pace and training conventions.
Can I use this for cycling or swimming, not just running?
Yes. The calculation only needs a distance and a time, so it works for any activity where pace or average speed is useful.
