Pace & Speed Conversion
This calculator lets you easily convert between Speed and Pace, two different ways to measure running performance.
Pace & Speed Conversion
Theory
Calculation Formula
This calculator is an implementation of the well-known formula:
$$ \textcolor{var(--primary-color)}{\displaystyle \Large \textbf{Speed} = \frac{60}{Pace}} $$
or
$$ \textcolor{var(--primary-color)}{\displaystyle \Large \textbf{Pace} = \frac{60}{Speed}} $$
Where:
- Speed - expressed in km/h or mph
- Pace - expressed in min/km or min/mile
Example:
If your Pace is 5 min/km, the Speed will be 12 km/h
If your Speed is 10 km/h, the Pace will be 6 min/km
Use
- Choose the Measurement System:
- Metric
- Imperial
There are two modes: Speed and Pace
Speed
- If you have chosen the Metric System, you can convert:
- Speed (km/h or m/s) to Pace (time/km)
- If you have chosen the Imperial System, you can convert:
- Speed (mph, yd/s or ft/s) to Pace (time/mile)
- If you know the Speed, you will get the corresponding Pace.
Pace
- If you have chosen the Metric System, you can convert:
- Pace (time/km) to Speed (km/h or m/s)
- If you have chosen the Imperial System, you can convert:
- Pace (time/mile) to Speed (mph, yd/s or ft/s)
- If you know the Pace, you will get the corresponding Speed.
Example:
A speed of 12 km/h corresponds to a pace of 5:00 min/km.
A pace of 8:00 min/mile corresponds to a speed of 7.5 mph.
