How it works

Pace is time divided by distance. Speed is distance divided by time. This calculator uses exactly 1 mile = 1.609344 kilometers and keeps full precision until the result is displayed.

Try this example

10 kilometers in 50 minutes is 5:00 min/km, about 8:03 min/mile, and 12 km/h. A 5:00 min/km pace over 21.0975 kilometers gives a half-marathon time of 1:45:29 after rounding.

Common questions

How do I convert pace from kilometers to miles?

Multiply seconds per kilometer by 1.609344. For example, 300 seconds per kilometer becomes about 483 seconds per mile, or 8:03 min/mile.

Can I use this for treadmill speed?

Yes. The result includes km/h and mph. It converts speed and pace; it does not adjust effort for treadmill incline or outdoor conditions.

Should I use moving time or elapsed time?

Use the time that matches your question. For a race finish target, use elapsed time. For a recorded run, check whether the source excludes pauses before comparing pace.
