SwitchExplanation
Formula: Minutes per Mile = Minutes per Kilometer × 1.609344. Why: road-running pace units such as minutes per kilometer and minutes per mile are normalized through seconds per meter, then rescaled using fixed distance definitions.
Minutes per Kilometer (min/km): a common running pace unit expressing how many minutes it takes to cover one kilometer.
Minutes per Mile (min/mi): a running pace unit expressing how many minutes it takes to cover one statute mile.
This route is useful when comparing road-running paces between metric and mile-based training plans, race targets, and workout logs.
This conversion is purely multiplicative because both pace formats reduce through seconds per meter using fixed distance definitions with no offset.
