How the conversion works

Multiply miles by 1.609344. The embedded converter opens at 5 miles; change the distance — a marathon is 26.2 miles — and press Convert.

Statute miles, not nautical miles

This page uses the international statute mile. Nautical miles, used in aviation and shipping, are longer at 1,852 meters each and live in the same converter under “nmi”.

Keep in mind

  • A conversion changes units, not the accuracy of the original distance measurement.
  • For area or fuel economy you need squared factors or combined units — see the kilometer and fuel guides.
