How the Running Pace Calculator Works

Choose what you want to calculate: Pace (given distance and finish time), Time (given distance and pace), or Distance (given time and pace). Use the preset pills for common race distances (5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon) or enter any custom value.

A splits table is generated automatically showing pace per km (or per mile) and cumulative time at each split point. Switch between km and miles at any time.
