About the Pace Calculator
The pace calculator helps runners determine their pace per mile or kilometer based on distance and time, or calculate distance based on pace and time, or time based on pace and distance. It's an essential tool for runners training for races or tracking their running progress.
How to Calculate Pace
Pace is calculated by dividing the time taken by the distance covered. The formula is:
Pace = Time / Distance
For example, if you run 5 miles in 40 minutes, your pace is 8 minutes per mile.
How to Calculate Distance
Distance is calculated by dividing the time taken by the pace. The formula is:
Distance = Time / Pace
For example, if you run at a pace of 7 minutes per mile for 1 hour (60 minutes), you'll cover approximately 8.57 miles.
How to Calculate Time
Time is calculated by multiplying pace by distance. The formula is:
Time = Pace × Distance
For example, if you run 10 kilometers at a pace of 5 minutes per kilometer, your time will be 50 minutes.
