running
these are some words for doing arithmetic with paces (min/km) and velocities (km/hr) relevant to running.

usage
in order to load them, you'd do:
for example, to convert a velocity to a pace, and print it:
18 vel>seg/1k .minseg
output:
3'20" ok
to do the opposite operation:
3 20 paso>vel .vel
output:
18 km/hr ok
to get the pace of a given segment, using minutes, seconds and distance in meters:
( 1'03" in 300m )
1 03 300 minseg/m>seg/1k .minseg
output:
3'30" ok
to get the difference between two times in minutes, seconds:
( 3'20" - 3'15" )
3 20 3 15 minseg- minseg>seg .minseg
output:
5" ok
