This is my first season as a sprint coach, so please bear with me.
I had my athletes run in an all-comers meet yesterday. Most of them were clustered in the 7.95-8.05 second range for the 60 and 12.45-12.60 for the 100. All times were FAT. It's still early in the season, but does anyone know what an 8.00 second 60 would convert to for the 100? I'm trying to tell whether they need to work more on their acceleration or their speed endurance.
Most sprint websites say to multiply their 60 meter time by 1.54 to get their 100 time, but this only seems to apply to elites who have different acceleration patterns and run a sub 7 60.

"just an interesting look at 60m to 100m times in a particular 60m time range.
The column on the left is a list of 60m times between 7.37 and 7.40 run by NCAA women indoors in the seasons of 2002-2008. The column on the right is the subsequent 100m time run by that same female during the outdoor season of that same year."
"If you omit the 2 fastest and 2 slowest 100m times, the avg is something like 7.38 and 11.42"

Multiply by 1.554 (=12.43)
So your 7.95-8.05 second guys should be running in the 12.35-12.51 range. -
Very helpful discussion--thanks!

You add on 40m.
