Data Source and Methodology
All calculations are based on standard swimming pace formulas. Please ensure accurate input for meaningful results. Consult resources like a third-party calculator for additional insights.
The Formula Explained
The pace calculation is based on the formula:
Pace (seconds/100m) = (Total Time in seconds / Distance in meters) × 100
Glossary of Terms
- Distance: The length of the swimming session measured in meters.
- Time: The total duration of the swim in minutes and seconds.
- Pace: The average time taken to swim 100 meters.
How It Works: A Step-by-Step Example
For instance, if you swim 200 meters in 4 minutes and 30 seconds, your pace will be calculated as follows:
Total time = 4 minutes × 60 + 30 seconds = 270 seconds
Pace = (270 / 200) × 100 = 135 seconds per 100 meters
