Sprint Speed Calculator
How fast is your 40 m, 60 m or 100 m sprint? Enter the distance you ran and the time it took, and this calculator returns your average speed in metres per second, kilometres per hour and miles per hour, plus how long that pace would take over 100 m. Use it to track speed work, compare sprint tests, or see where you stand against benchmark times.
Average speed is simply distance divided by time, here shown in metres per second, kilometres per hour and miles per hour, plus the equivalent time to cover 100 m at that pace. Note this is the average over the whole effort: a sprint includes acceleration, so peak speed is higher than the average shown. For a 40 m or 100 m test, measure from first movement to the finish for a fair number.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the sprint speed calculator measure?
- It measures how fast you sprinted over a set distance. By entering your sprint distance and time, the tool returns your speed in metres per second, kilometres per hour and miles per hour, plus your equivalent 100-metre pace.
- How do I calculate sprint speed?
- Enter the distance you sprinted and the time it took. Speed is distance divided by time, so the calculator converts your result into m/s, km/h and mph, and projects a 100 m time so you can compare different sprint efforts.
- What is a fast sprint speed?
- Speed depends heavily on age and training, but recreational athletes often reach around 20 to 28 km/h in a short sprint, while elite sprinters exceed 35 km/h. Use the result to benchmark your own efforts rather than against world-class times.
