How does the Yards Goal Time Calculator (Swimming Calculator) work?
The swimmer can enter in the time they would like to target, choose the stroke and distance and then hit the Calculate button. The calculator will break the swim down to the individual splits the swimmer should target for an accurate race.
How was the calculator created?
Over 2000 data points from the top 10 fastest race times in history for each event were analysed. Every split in each swim is captured, converted into a percentage of total swim time. All the splits are then averaged out across the 10 fastest times in history to create a formula that can be used to reverse engineer out a future Goal Time or to review Race Results. The data is constantly tracked and updated weekly so the formula’s are current and accurate. Ideal for NCAA Division swimming.
