How it works
Pace per 100 = total time ÷ (distance ÷ 100)Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate swim pace?
Divide your time by the number of 100s: 30 minutes for 1500 m is a 2:00 per-100 m pace. Swimmers track this the way runners track min/km.
What is a good swimming pace?
For fitness swimmers, 2:00–2:30 per 100 m is common; competitive pool swimmers hold well under 1:30. Open-water and triathlon paces run slower than pool times.
How do I convert 100 m pace to 100 yd?
A yard is shorter, so multiply your 100 m pace by 0.9144 for the 100 yd equivalent — roughly 8–9% faster times over the shorter unit.
