Enter Distance — distance, Distance and Time — hours and the remaining scenario settings to review running pace with this tool. A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance.
Pace = Total time ÷ Distance
Speed = Distance ÷ Total timeThe calculation links Distance — distance, Distance and Time — hours to running pace. A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance. It is an arithmetic extrapolation rather than a performance prediction.
Enter Distance — distance, Distance and Time — hours and the remaining scenario settings to review running pace with this tool. A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance.
Convert a running time and distance into pace or a constant-pace finish-time scenario. Compare race distances without changing the pace unit.
A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance. It is an arithmetic extrapolation rather than a performance prediction.
Prepare Distance — distance, Distance, Time — hours, Time — minutes, Time, Calculate, Target pace — pace Minutes, Target pace — pace Seconds and Target pace. Use the event distance and a consistent elapsed-time definition; read minutes and seconds separately in the result.
A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance. It is an arithmetic extrapolation rather than a performance prediction. Fatigue, terrain, weather and stops can prevent a pace from being sustained over a longer event. The tool does not design a training plan.
Use the full settings in the worked-example table. They produce Running Pace: 6:00 per mi; Speed: 10.0 mph. Compare the method and units as well as the displayed number.
The displayed relationship is Pace = Total time ÷ Distance Speed = Distance ÷ Total time Use the event distance and a consistent elapsed-time definition; read minutes and seconds separately in the result.
Fatigue, terrain, weather and stops can prevent a pace from being sustained over a longer event. The tool does not design a training plan. For personal care, discuss the measurements and method with a qualified clinician.
Worked running pace calculator example. Set Distance — distance = 5; Distance = miles; Time — hours = 0; Time — minutes = 30; Time = 0; Calculate = Calculate Pace; Target pace — pace Minutes = 9; Target pace — pace Seconds = 30; Target pace = per mile. The corresponding output is Running Pace: 6:00 per mi; Speed: 10.0 mph. A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance.

Relationship used for this example: Pace = Total time ÷ Distance Speed = Distance ÷ Total time
A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance. It is an arithmetic extrapolation rather than a performance prediction.
| Output | Displayed result |
|---|---|
| Running Pace | 6:00 per mi |
| Speed | 10.0 mph |
With these settings, running pace is 6:00 per mi. Use the same units and calculation mode when reproducing this example.
A projected finish time assumes the selected pace is maintained for the whole distance. It is an arithmetic extrapolation rather than a performance prediction. Fatigue, terrain, weather and stops can prevent a pace from being sustained over a longer event. The tool does not design a training plan.
Replace the illustrative distance — distance value (5) with your own value, then complete the other inputs for the same scenario. Use the event distance and a consistent elapsed-time definition; read minutes and seconds separately in the result.
