in the middle distance. You are assuming some proportional differences should apply 100m through marathon
no
you can try ~ 10% for 100m difference
But the fatigue resistance (ability to maintain speed) differences are not so applicable in the 100m, and peak
muscle power difference (ability to produce speed) are not quite as important in the marathon. As a result you get roughly 11% differences in WR times at 100m and marathon.
Somewhere in between, however, these power and fatigue resistance functions maximize the gender differences in performance velocity
you've got it wrong way around
if the difference is 10% for sprints, it is more like
9.5%
for non-sprints as importance of testosterone/muscle becomes less important & endurance more
9.6 x 1.12 = 10.8 (100m)
43.2 x 1.12 = 48.3 (400m)
1:41 x 1.12 = 1:53.1 (800m)
3:26 x 1.12 = 3:50.7 (1500m)
4:45 x 1.12 = 5:18 (2000m)
7:20.67 x 1.12 = 8:14 (3000m)
12:37 x 1.12 = 14:12 (5000m)
26:18 x 1.12 = 29:28 (10000m)
2:03:24 x 1.2 = 2:18 (marathon)
no
try 1.10 for 100 - 400
for longer distances, try
1.095
as better theoretical conversion factor & then you will see why women's non-sprints are so p!ss-weak & likes of these africans are only bringing the times to a half-decent level
