How this is calculated

Speed = Distance ÷ Time · Time = Distance ÷ Speed · Distance = Speed × Time · Pace = Time ÷ Distance

Units
Converted through metres and seconds using exact definitions (1 mi = 1,609.344 m; 1 knot = 1,852 m/h)
Pace
Minutes per km or per mile — the inverse of speed, used by runners

Speed, distance and time are linked by one formula: distance = speed × time. Give any two and the third follows. The calculator converts everything through metres and seconds, so you can mix units — a 350 km drive at 70 mph, or a 10 km run at 5:30 per km. Stops are added to the travel time, and the average speed including stops shows the realistic pace of a trip.

Assumptions & sources

  • Speed is an average over the whole distance.
  • Arrival time assumes departure and arrival in the same time zone.

Common questions

How do I calculate travel time?

Divide the distance by the average speed: 350 km at 70 km/h takes 5 hours. Add stops for a realistic total.

What's the difference between speed and pace?

Speed is distance per time (km/h); pace is time per distance (minutes per km). A 6:00 min/km pace is 10 km/h.

Can I mix units?

Yes — enter the distance in miles and the speed in km/h, or anything else; everything is converted exactly behind the scenes.
