Race Time Converter – convert your most recent race performance into estimated times to complete 5K, 10K, half marathon and marathon. A fun way to fantasize how far (and fast) you could go!
How Far, How Fast – Instantly!
Ever finished a 10K and wondered, "If I ran some more, how long would it take me to get through the remaining of a marathon?" That's where the Race Time Converter comes in handy.
This neat little tool uses the famous Riegel formula to turn your latest race performance into estimated finish times for other popular distances. Just plug in your most recent result, click Convert Times, and boom — you’ll see projections for the mile, 5K, 10K, half marathon and the full 42.195 km.
Simple Formula
It's not magic (but it kinda looks like it). It's just the formula noticing how speed will tend to slow down as the distance grows. Just think of a good maths tutor being like, "This is how you could do… if you continue practicing, eat properly, and don't waste your time watching boxsets instead of doing long runs."
Of course, it's still an estimate. Weather, terrain, shoes, snacks, and your resistance to yet another coffee stop all count. But for a guide to setting goals or boasting to your friends, this calculator is perfect.
So go for it — charge up on that PB and watch how soon you could be zipping it around other start lines. Just don't blame us if you find yourself abruptly entering more races than your diary (or knees) can handle.

Enter a recent race result and get predicted finish times for other distances.
Predicted Times
Formula used: Riegel's formula (T₂ = T₁ × (D₂/D₁)^1.06). Predictions are estimates; real-world conditions vary.
Conclusion
The Race Time Converter ain't no crystal ball, but it's a good inspiration — and a whole lot cheaper than buying your own pace crew. Your approximate marathon time is supposed to please or frighten you, period. Take it as a reminder to train smart, be consistent, and enjoy the ride.
Because, at the end of it all, the ultimate race performance is not necessarily a function of the clock. It's about arriving, taking that one step, and crossing that finish line with a smile (or at least a modestly heroic hobble).
