Pacing your run

Knowing your pace helps you train at the right intensity and plan even race splits. Enter a recent run or a goal time over a distance to see the pace it requires per kilometre and per mile. Holding a steady pace — rather than starting too fast — is one of the simplest ways to run a stronger race.
