Speed

Sprint Speed Calculator

Convert sprint time into average speed in m/s and km/h plus an average 10 m split.

Speed

Average sprint speed

Enter the measured distance and total time.

m
s

Average speed—km/h
Average split / 10 m—s

Average speed is not the same as maximum speed: a sprint includes acceleration and, depending on distance, may also include a maximal-speed or deceleration phase.

Average speed vs maximum speed

This tool divides total distance by total time. It is useful for converting sprint times into a comparable speed measure, but it does not identify peak speed reached during the sprint.

Average speed (m/s) = distance (m) ÷ time (s)

To analyse acceleration or maximum speed in more detail, use intermediate splits or dedicated measurement systems.
