Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between pace and speed?
Pace is how long it takes to cover one unit of distance (minutes per kilometer or mile) — lower is faster. Speed is how much distance you cover in one unit of time (kilometers or miles per hour) — higher is faster. They're inverses of each other.
Can I use this for cycling or walking too?
Yes — the math is the same regardless of activity; it's just distance divided by time, so it works for any activity measured that way.
How precise is the result?
As precise as the distance and time you enter — for the most accurate pace, use the exact distance (e.g. from a GPS watch) rather than a rounded figure.
