# Goal pace

Goal pace is how much a metric must change each week to reach your target by the date you set.

Divide the gap between your current smoothed level and your target by the weeks left on the calendar. Compare that required weekly change to the change your data show over the last two weeks. Feedback on pace helps you adjust food, steps, sleep or training one lever at a time instead of guessing from a single day's number.

Also called: Required weekly rate, Goal rate.
