Tools

Numbers you can use.

Free calculators, no login, no upsell. And because half the point of this site is honesty about numbers: every tool tells you out loud where it bends.

Pure arithmetic

Pace converter

Type a pace, get it back in every unit that matters — and what it adds up to over 5K, 10K, the half and the full.

Riegel · 10 distances

Race time predictor

Take a race you have actually run and project it onto nine other distances, using Riegel's equation with the fine print attached.

Karvonen · Tanaka

Heart-rate zones

Five zones from your maximum. Add your resting rate and it switches to heart-rate reserve, which fits most people better.

Physics · thinner air

Climb calculator

Your FTP and weight into watts per kilo, and honest times on seven famous cols and two big sportives.

Wind-tunnel figures

Aero lab

Where your watts actually go on the flat, and what each upgrade is really worth at your speed.

Three routes · sources shown

VO2max estimate

From your resting and maximum heart rate, a steady ride with a power meter, or a steady run at a known pace — each with an honest range, every number traced to its source.

What every one of these tells you

Each tool has a section called Under the hood: the sum it actually does, and a line-by-line table of the numbers that go into it — where each one comes from, and which ones are our own assumption rather than something anyone measured. Those are marked.

That is not modesty for its own sake. A calculator hands you a number that looks like a fact, with no argument around it you can weigh. The least we can do is show you which parts of that number are solid and which are a judgement call.

Use one of these on your own site

Club site, blog, coaching page: any of the six calculators drops in with one line of code. It sets no cookies, measures nothing on your page and sizes itself. How to embed a calculator →

Missing a tool?

These six are the start. If there's a calculator you keep wishing existed — fuelling planner, heat-adjusted pace, whatever keeps you up at night — tell us: mail info@enduranceproof.com or ping @EnduranceProof_ on X, and we'll put the best ones on the bench.

We write when a new tool or piece is finished, and not otherwise. One click to leave.
