Put in my 800 and 1500 times from last year:

100 0:10.70

200 0:20.97

400 0:49.16

800 1:55.0

1500 4:03.5

1-mile 4:24.77

3000 9:10.19

2-mile 9:57.02

5000 16:34.66

10000 36:41.39

Not quite I'm afraid...

Can you be more specific? Which times don't match up?

I don't race the 100m or 200m but I'm damn sure I could not break 11 seconds or 21 seconds. I can't break 50 for the 400 either so those three 'estimates' are way off.

Whoa how is your 3k nearly the same pace as your 5k???

I'm not much of a track runner. The 5k time is from a fast cross country course.

As a distance runner, your 100m SHOULD be slower than 200m/2. Also, looking at OP's tip #2, you shouldn't use 200m as input yet. If you use your 5k and another time like your 800m time, then the numbers look fine compared to your actual PRs.

My 100m shouldn't be that much slower than my 200m. Its simply not possible to be able to run a 24 200m and only 13 for a 100m.

And yeah I realize 200m isn't a great point of reference but since OP advertised the ability to predict 100m-400m which is pretty uncommon, I wanted to test them out

zomg:

Perhaps swaglord has untapped world record marathon potential ;)

outside observer:

Yes, but my 200 result was a little tooooo fast (mentioned in unfinished issue number 2). I think it should be more accurate now though.

swaglord:

I've updated the site. The times look much better now. What do you think?

unfinished issue number 4 in the original post:

Fixed. Times can be entered as minutes & seconds or solely as seconds. I wonder if entering them as solely minutes works...

I entered my 5k and 10k times. Id's say only the 3k-time is close to what I could do. 100-800 are way to slow.

100 0:16.69

400 1:01.98

800 2:09.22

1500 4:11.29

Regarding the 100-800 times being way too slow, sure maybe. But I'd hold off on that judgment until we are sure that your input times are reliable.

Consider this:

Kenenisa Bekele's 10k/5k ratio = 2.07

yours = 1856/894 = 2.07

Do you think your endurance is as good as Bekele's (don't get me wrong, it's certainly possible)? Or do you think that maybe one of your times wasn't run as well as the other?

The 200 still seems a little fast compared to the 100m and 400m but overall everything seems pretty good. Nice job on this!

Different things work for different people. Maybe this only works for elites, not hobbylites like me.

Tinman has nailed my PRs to from 100m to 5K.

Interesting and pretty cool. Entered my HS PRs for 1mi and 2mi and found everything to be pretty accurate...ran a 55 400, 2:01 800, and 15:40s on a couple different XC courses. Never ran a 10K at the time, but I think it's a little slow...maybe not though. Ah...the glory days of HS running.

Except my 10k does not fall off that much.

Great work.

those 800 and 10k times were run like a year apart
