How It Works

Required Inputs:

• Distance (miles or km)
• Time (hours, minutes, seconds)

Outputs:

• Pace per mile
• Pace per kilometer

Calculation Logic:

1. Convert total time to minutes:

$$\text{Total Minutes} = \text{Hours} \times 60 + \text{Minutes} + \frac{\text{Seconds}}{60}$$Total Minutes=Hours×60+Minutes+60Seconds​

2. Calculate pace:

$$\text{Pace per mile} = \frac{\text{Total Minutes}}{\text{Distance in miles}}$$Pace per mile=Distance in milesTotal Minutes​ $$\text{Pace per km} = \frac{\text{Total Minutes}}{\text{Distance in km}}$$Pace per km=Distance in kmTotal Minutes​
