The EU AI Act applies to two-person studios in full, but most micro-companies will only feel a fraction of its obligations. If you build, deploy, or even use an AI system in the EU, you must determine your role (provider, deployer, importer, distributor) and your risk category; for most small studios building internal tools or low-risk apps, the main duties are transparency, basic data governance, and AI literacy for staff.
Formula
The calculator works out your average pace and speed for a given distance and finish time. The formulas are:
- Pace (min/km) = Finish time (minutes) ÷ Distance (km)
- Speed (km/h) = Distance (km) ÷ (Finish time (minutes) ÷ 60)
Where t is total time in minutes, d is distance in kilometres. Pace tells you how many minutes each kilometre took; speed tells you how many kilometres you covered in one hour. The two are reciprocals when you convert units properly.
Worked Example
Using the default values (50 minutes, 10 km):
- Pace = 50 ÷ 10 = 5.00 min/km
- Speed = 10 ÷ (50 ÷ 60) = 10 ÷ 0.8333 = 12.00 km/h
So you ran each kilometre in 5 minutes, which equals 12 km/h. The calculator rounds both to two decimals.
When to Use This Calculator
Use it after a run, ride, or walk when you know the total time and distance. It is handy for training plans, race pacing, or comparing efforts across different routes. You can also reverse it: if you want a target pace, multiply the pace by the distance to get the finish time.
How to Read the Results
The first result (pace) is the most common metric for runners – lower is faster. Speed is more common for cyclists and drivers. Remember that pace is per kilometre; if you think in miles, convert distance to km first (1 mile = 1.60934 km) or multiply the pace by 1.60934 to get min/mile.
Common Mistakes
- Unit mix-ups: entering time in hours instead of minutes, or distance in miles instead of km. Always convert to minutes and km.
- Rounding too early: if you round the pace to 5.00 and then compute speed from that rounded value, you get 12.00 km/h, but using the unrounded time gives the same here. In general, keep full precision until the final step.
- Confusing pace and speed: pace is time per distance, speed is distance per time. A faster runner has a lower pace.
Limitations of the Formula
This is a simple average – it does not account for elevation gain, stops, or varied terrain. It assumes you moved at a perfectly constant speed, which is rarely true. For interval training or hilly routes, the average pace will not reflect the actual effort. Also, the formula gives you the average over the whole distance; if you want splits, you need to apply it to each segment separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert pace from min/km to min/mile?
Multiply the pace in min/km by 1.60934. For example, 5.00 min/km × 1.60934 = 8.05 min/mile. Conversely, divide min/mile by 1.60934 to get min/km.
What is a good average pace for a beginner?
It varies widely by age, fitness, and gender. A common benchmark for a recreational runner is around 6:00–7:00 min/km (9.7–10 km/h). For walking, a brisk pace is about 11–12 min/km (5–5.5 km/h). Do not compare yourself to others; focus on your own improvement.
Can I use this for cycling?
Yes, the same formula works. Cyclists typically use speed (km/h) more than pace. Enter your ride time and distance, and you will get both.
Why does the calculator show pace in min/km and not min/mile?
The defaults and formula use kilometres because that is the standard in most of the world and in the EU AI Act context (the topic of the page). You can convert the distance to km first (miles × 1.60934) and the result will be in min/km.
What if I only know my speed, not my pace?
You can compute pace from speed: pace (min/km) = 60 ÷ speed (km/h). For example, 12 km/h → 60 ÷ 12 = 5.00 min/km. The calculator does this automatically if you enter time and distance.
