The 5K (5 kilometres = 3.11 miles) is the most popular race distance in the world, from Saturday morning parkruns to road race competitions. Whether your GPS watch shows min/mile or min/km, this converter translates your pace instantly.
To run a 5K in 25 minutes you need a pace of exactly 5:00 min/km (8:03 min/mile). The treadmill speed is 12.0 km/h or 7.46 mph. To break 20 minutes you need 4:00 min/km (6:26 min/mile) — equivalent to 15.0 km/h or 9.32 mph on the treadmill.
Common 5K target paces and finish times: - 4:00 min/km (6:26 min/mi) → 20:00 5K - 4:30 min/km (7:15 min/mi) → 22:30 5K - 5:00 min/km (8:03 min/mi) → 25:00 5K - 5:30 min/km (8:51 min/mi) → 27:30 5K - 6:00 min/km (9:40 min/mi) → 30:00 5K - 7:00 min/km (11:16 min/mi) → 35:00 5K
Use the converter above to enter any min/mile or min/km pace. It shows the converted pace, your treadmill speed, and your projected finish time not only for the 5K but also for 10K, half-marathon, and marathon — ideal for race planning or training zone comparison.
