🏃 Pace Calculator – Know Your Running Speed & Plan Better

✅ What is a Pace Calculator?

A Pace Calculator helps you determine how fast you're running, walking, or cycling by showing your time per distance unit (usually per kilometer or mile). It’s commonly used to:

• 🎯 Track running or cycling progress
• ⏱️ Set race targets (5K, 10K, half-marathon, marathon)
• 🧮 Convert between time, distance, and pace

🧮 Basic Pace Formula (Plain Text)

🔹 1. Pace = Time ÷ Distance

arduinoCopyEditPace (min/km or min/mile) = Total Time (in minutes) ÷ Distance

🧮 Example

If you run 10 km in 50 minutes:

iniCopyEditPace = 50 ÷ 10 = 5 minutes/km

✅ This means you run 1 kilometer in 5 minutes.

🔄 Other Useful Conversions

🔹 2. To find Time = Pace × Distance

iniCopyEditTime = 5 min/km × 10 km = 50 minutes

🔹 3. To find Distance = Time ÷ Pace

iniCopyEditDistance = 60 minutes ÷ 6 min/km = 10 km
