Run Pace 10K Pace Calculator
A 10K rewards patience. The opening kilometres feel easy at goal pace, and the race is decided between kilometres six and nine, when holding that pace starts to hurt. Knowing your exact target per kilometre or per mile makes it easier to stay disciplined early.
Enter a goal time to get your required pace, or drag the slider to see how a few seconds per kilometre change your finish. The 10K pace chart below runs from 32 to 80 minutes in two-minute steps.
