Calculate

Enter two of pace, time and distance, and solve for the third. Times are estimates at a constant pace.

How it works

Pace = time ÷ distance, time = pace × distance, and distance = time ÷ pace. Pace per mile is pace per kilometre × 1.60934. Race splits assume you hold the same pace for the whole distance — in practice most runners slow over longer races.

Frequently asked questions

Why do my race splits look optimistic?

Because they assume a constant pace. Use a race-time predictor adjustment, or pace the first half conservatively, for longer races.

Can I enter time as minutes and seconds?

Enter it as decimal minutes here: 27 minutes 30 seconds is 27.5 minutes.

Does this account for hills or heat?

No. Hills, heat, wind and fatigue all slow you down versus a flat, cool-weather calculation.
