The basic rule of The Athlete's Calculator is that it will always calculate an empty field if the remaining two fields are filled. So if your workout covers a known (or roughly known) distance at a known (or roughly known) pace, fill in Distance and Pace, press Calculate, and the Time will be calculated. You might do this, for example, to estimate your finishing time in a marathon - enter the distance and your estimated (or hoped-for) pace, press Calculate, and you'll see the expected finishing time (see example below). If you run an unknown route, you can estimate the distance by entering Time and Pace and pressing Calculate.

![]() |
Enter distance and pace |
Press Calculate to calculate time |
After a field has been entered and used in a calculation (by pressing the Calculate button), you can enter a new value in that field simply by entering a number; there's no need to press the Clear button. For example, let's say you are estimating your finish time in a marathon and you entered distance and pace, pressed Calculate, and saw the predicted finish time (as shown above). Now if you want to see the finishing time for a different pace, simply enter a new number and press Calculate (assuming Pace was already the active field; if it wasn't, tap on Pace first).

![]() |
Enter a new pace |
Press Calculate again to calculate new time |
To perform a completely new calculation, you can clear all three fields by tapping
the Clear All button.
