Beats per Minute (BPM)
Your running pace can be measured in beats per minute (BPM) - the number of times your feet hit the ground in a minute of running.
Be aware your running BPM (also known as cadence) is also affected by how tall you are and how fit you are. Think about how fast a chiwawa's legs go compared to a great dane!
For someone of average height and fitness 150 BPM is a gentle pace for warming up or cooling down, and at 170 BPM most people are running fast.
