How to use this calculator

  1. Enter the quantities in the units printed on each field.
  2. Use your own measured step length whenever a step length is requested.
  3. Read the calculated result, then change an input to compare a different scenario.

Formula and calculation method

Pace = time ÷ distance; speed = distance ÷ time; finish time = pace × target distance.

1 mile = 1,609.344 m; 1 foot = 0.3048 m; 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Steps are rounded to whole counts; other displayed values normally use two decimal places.

Worked example

5 km in 30 minutes is 6 min/km; the same pace gives 60 minutes for 10 km.

Accuracy and limitations

A constant-pace projection does not account for fatigue or terrain.
