How pace is calculated

pace = time ÷ distance

Example: a 5K (3.1 mi) in 28:30 is a pace of 9:12 per mile or 5:43 per km – 6.5 mph. Switch the calculator to Time to get a finish time from a target pace, or to Distance to see how far you get in a given time.

Using the splits

The table below the result shows where you should be after each mile at an even pace. Most runners finish faster with even or slightly negative splits – the second half a little quicker than the first – than by starting fast.

Frequently asked questions

What pace do I need for a sub-4-hour marathon?

About 9:09 per mile or 5:41 per km.

How do I convert pace to speed?

Divide 60 by the pace in minutes: 9:00 per mile is 60 ÷ 9 = 6.67 mph.
