Running Pace Calculator

Calculate your running pace from distance and time: minutes per km or mile, plus the speed and a training-equivalent pace chart.

About this tool

Enter the distance and time of any run to get your exact pace in minutes per kilometer and per mile, your speed, and projected finish times for 10k and half-marathon distances.

Pace is the single metric runners train by — this calculator converts every workout into comparable numbers so you can measure progress week over week.

FAQ

How is pace calculated?

Total time in seconds divided by distance. 28:30 for 5 km equals a pace of 5:42 per kilometer.

What is a good running pace?

Beginner jogging is 6:30-8:00/km; a 10k finisher averages about 6:00; competitive runners hold 4:00-5:00/km.

How do I turn pace into race predictions?

Multiply your per-km pace by the race distance. Pace drifts slightly on longer runs — add about 5% for halves and marathons.
