Useful to know

How is pace different from speed?

Pace is the time needed to cover a distance. A smaller minutes-per-kilometre number means faster running. Speed measures distance per hour, so a larger number means faster running.

How many kilometres are in a mile?

One international mile is exactly 1.609344 kilometres. This converter uses that value, then rounds displayed pace to the nearest second.

Can I calculate a finish time?

Use our existing pace calculator and charts to convert a target race time into pace, or a pace into finish times over common distances.
