What Is Running Pace?
Pace is how long it takes you to run one kilometre or one mile. For example, a pace of 5:30 per km means you run each kilometre in 5 minutes and 30 seconds. Knowing your pace helps you plan training runs, set race goals, and track improvement over time.
Pace Formula
Pace = Time ÷ Distance
Finish Time = Pace × Distance
Distance = Time ÷ Pace
