Calculating running pace in Microsoft Excel is quite simple. You can use the formula
Code:
"=time(0,0,Distance/Time)"
to calculate your running pace. Here's how you can set it up in your spreadsheet:
- Create a new column for your running pace. You can label this column "Pace" or "Mile Pace."
- In the first cell of the Pace column, enter the formula
Code:
"=time(0,0,Distance/Time)"
where "Distance" is the distance you ran (in miles) and "Time" is the time it took you to run that distance (in minutes). - Press Enter to calculate the running pace for that row.
- Copy the formula down the entire column to automatically calculate the running pace for each row.
- You can format the cells in the Pace column to display the time in a more readable format. Right-click on the cells, select "Format Cells," and choose "Custom." In the "Type" field, enter "mm:ss" to display the time in minutes and seconds.
That's it! Now, every time you enter the distance and time for a run, the running pace will be automatically calculated in the Pace column. This will save you time and make it easier to track your progress over time.
