Running pace calculator

Pace 5:00 min/km
Speed
12 km/h

Pace is the time it takes you to cover each kilometre. It's the reference runners use to control their effort.

This running pace calculator works out your pace in minutes per kilometre and your speed in km/h from a distance and a time.

Pace as a training reference

Enter the distance you covered and the time it took, in minutes and seconds, and the result updates instantly. Runners use pace — not speed — as the main reference to control their effort during training and races, since it maps directly to the kilometre markers on the course.

FAQ

How is pace calculated?
Pace is your total time divided by the distance covered, expressed in minutes and seconds per kilometre (min/km). The tool also converts it to a speed in km/h.
What's the difference between pace and speed?
Pace tells you how long each kilometre takes (min/km), while speed tells you how far you travel in an hour (km/h). Runners usually think in pace, cyclists in speed.
Can I use it to plan a race?
Yes. Enter your goal distance and target time to see the pace you need to hold, or enter a recent run to see what pace you actually ran.
