How it works

Average pace = total time ÷ distance. The decimal part of each minute is converted into seconds.

Three practical tips

  • Use elapsed time if you want true event pace.
  • Plan a small pacing buffer for hills and congestion.
  • Average pace can hide fast and slow splits.

Is pace the same as speed?

They describe the same performance differently: pace is time per distance, while speed is distance per time.
