Move Pages in Microsoft Word: A Step-by-Step Guide

To move pages in Microsoft Word, you can cut and paste the content, use the Navigation Pane to drag headings, or insert page breaks to control page breaks. This guide explains the methods for rearranging pages in Word, including how to handle text, images, and sections.

Formula

The calculator above works out your average pace and speed for a run or ride. The formulas are:

  • Average pace (min/km) = finish time (minutes) ÷ distance (km)
  • Average speed (km/h) = distance (km) ÷ (finish time (minutes) ÷ 60)

Where:

  • t = finish time in minutes
  • d = distance in kilometres

Pace is the number of minutes it takes to cover one kilometre. Speed is the number of kilometres you cover in one hour. They are two ways of expressing the same effort.

Worked Example

Using the default values from the calculator: finish time = 50 minutes, distance = 10 km.

  1. Pace = 50 ÷ 10 = 5.00 min/km
  2. Speed = 10 ÷ (50 ÷ 60) = 10 ÷ 0.8333 = 12.00 km/h

The calculator shows an average pace of 5.00 min/km and an average speed of 12.00 km/h. These match the example above.

When to Use This Calculator

Use this tool when you have recorded a run, ride, or walk and want to know your average pace or speed. It is useful for training, race planning, or just satisfying curiosity about how fast you moved. You can enter any time and distance combination, as long as the units are consistent (minutes and kilometres, or hours and miles if you convert first).

How to Read the Result

The pace tells you how many minutes each kilometre took. A lower pace means faster. The speed tells you how many kilometres you covered in an hour. A higher speed means faster. For example, a 50-minute 10 km run gives a pace of 5:00 per km, which is a common goal for many recreational runners.

Common Mistakes

  • Mixing units: If you enter time in hours and distance in kilometres, the calculator will give the wrong result. Convert everything to minutes and kilometres first.
  • Using seconds: If your time includes seconds, convert them to decimal minutes (e.g., 45:30 becomes 45.5 minutes) before entering.
  • Confusing pace and speed: Pace is minutes per unit distance; speed is distance per hour. They are inversely related.

Limitations of the Formula

This formula assumes a constant pace throughout the activity. In reality, your pace may vary due to hills, stops, or changes in effort. The result is an average, so it doesn’t reflect the difficulty of any particular segment. Also, the calculator uses metric units by default; if you work in miles, convert miles to kilometres (1 mile = 1.60934 km) before using it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert my time from hours and minutes to minutes?

Multiply the hours by 60 and add the minutes. For example, 1 hour 20 minutes = 1 × 60 + 20 = 80 minutes. Then enter 80 in the finish time field.

What if I ran 5 miles in 40 minutes?

First convert miles to kilometres: 5 miles × 1.60934 = 8.0467 km. Then enter 40 minutes and 8.0467 km. The calculator will give your pace in min/km and speed in km/h. To get min/mile, you would use a different formula.

Is a lower pace always better?

Yes, a lower pace means you are covering each kilometre faster. For example, 4:30 min/km is faster than 5:00 min/km.

Can I use this for cycling?

Yes, the same formula works for any activity where you know the time and distance, such as cycling, swimming, or hiking. Just make sure the distance is in kilometres.

What is the difference between average pace and average speed?

Average pace is the time it takes to cover one unit of distance (e.g., minutes per kilometre). Average speed is the distance covered in one unit of time (e.g., kilometres per hour). They are reciprocal measures of the same thing.
