Average Walking, Running Speed Miles per Hour
Calculate the average speed you are walking or running from a distance in miles and the elapsed time
Example Calculation
the elapsed time of run = 34 minutes and 22 seconds distance = 3.96 miles
Change the time to the same units (convert seconds to minutes);
one minute = 60 seconds
22 ÷ 60 = 0.366667 + 34 = 34.366667
34 minutes and 22 seconds is the same as 34.366667 minutes.
Convert the time to hours;
one hour = 60 minutes
34.366667 ÷ 60 = 0.57277778 rounded to
34 minutes and 22 seconds is the same as 0.573 hours
Divide the distance by time;
3.96 ÷ 0.573 = 6.91099 rounded to 6.91
You have an average running speed of 6.91 miles per hour.
