Calculate Your Running Pace, Time, or Distance
Our comprehensive Pace Calculator suite helps you solve for any variable in the time-speed-distance equation, convert between paces, and predict your finish times for different race distances.
What is a Pace Calculator?
A Pace Calculator is an essential tool for runners of all levels. It allows you to easily calculate your running pace (e.g., minutes per mile or per kilometer), your total finish time for a given distance, or the distance you ran based on your time and pace. By automating these calculations, it helps you set goals, track your progress, and plan your race strategy.
How It Works: The Pace, Time, and Distance Formulas
The calculator is based on the fundamental relationship between time, speed, and distance:
Pace = Time / Distance
Time = Pace × Distance
Distance = Time / Pace
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you calculate running pace?
Running pace is calculated by dividing the total time of your run by the distance you covered. For example, if you ran 3 miles in 24 minutes, your pace is 8 minutes per mile (24 minutes / 3 miles). Our calculator can solve for pace, time, or distance if you provide the other two variables.
What is a good pace for a 5K?
A 'good' 5K pace is relative to your age, gender, and fitness level. A beginner might aim for a pace around 12-15 minutes per mile (finishing in 37-47 minutes). An average runner might have a pace of 9-11 minutes per mile (28-34 minute finish), while advanced runners can be under 7 minutes per mile.
How do I convert pace per mile to pace per km?
To convert your pace from minutes per mile to minutes per kilometer, you divide the pace by 1.60934. For example, an 8-minute mile is equivalent to a 4:58 pace per kilometer. Our Pace Converter tool can do this instantly.
How can I predict my race time?
You can use a recent race result to predict your finish time for a different distance. Our Running Time Predictor tool uses a formula (like the Riegel model) that accounts for how your pace naturally slows over longer distances to give you a realistic estimate for a marathon based on your 5K time, for example.
