How running pace is calculated
Pace describes time needed per kilometer; speed describes kilometers per hour. Divide total seconds by distance, then convert to minutes and seconds.
Worked example
A 25-minute 5 km run averages 5:00 min/km, equivalent to 12 km/h.
Tips for better results
- Double-check all input values before calculating.
- Use the competition's official rules if they differ from the standard formula.
- Use this tool for planning and learning; results do not replace official records.
