How the Run Speed Calculator Works

Required Inputs:

• Distance run (miles or kilometers)
• Time taken (hours, minutes, seconds)

Outputs:

• Speed in miles per hour (mph)
• Speed in kilometers per hour (km/h)

Calculation Logic:$$\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$$Speed=TimeDistance​

Time should be converted into hours for mph/km/h calculations.
