I'm looking for a good online running splits calculator or an app that would do the same thing. I had been using the uscaa splits calculator but it looks like that is no longer working. Cool running pace calculator is a little slow and tedious for trying to figure out splits for workout reps and shorter races. Does anyone have anything they use that works well?
3:00 1k = 5x200m in 36s with 0 rest
Are Americans this metrically challenged? 1k = 1000 meters
So you do the math. Also, if using a regular calculator you can figure it out easily.
probably somewhere between 19 and 26 seconds
3:00 1k=what 200?? wrote:

I use my brains
easy minutes x 60 = seconds = 3 x 60 = 180
180 for 1000 meters = 18 seconds per 100 meters
so
100 18
200 36
300 54
400 72 1:12
500 90 1:30
600 108 1:48
700 126 2:06
800 144 2:24
900 162 2:42
1000 180 3:00
This will do it too:
It's pretty easy to figure out in your head, try this method.
Every prime number (except 2 & 3) squared equals a {multiple of 24} + 1.
There are 4 laps to a mile and 60 seconds in a minute, 4x6 = 24. This is important!
Find the nearest multiple to 24 in your preferred mile pace e.g. 5:15 is 315 seconds 315/24 is 13.125, round down to 13, 13x24 is 312 seconds. That is three seconds less than 315 (remember that it will be important later).
13x13=169, 169-1=168, 168/24 = 7
Take your 13 and multiply it by 6 to get 78 than take the 3 seconds you had left over from before and divide that by four you will get .75. 78.75 is the lap pace you will need to run to go four laps in 5:15.
I hope this helps.
Wow thank you for such an insightful post. You must be really smart. The username was a joke, I'm perfectly capable of doing the math to determine those splits but the problem is when I am coming up with splits for 70 different kids on my team it becomes time consuming to go through and do the math for every one of them and it was much easier to use a calculator that I could just punch in a time and distance and it spit out splits for every 100m if I wanted them.
If you can't find one, why don't you just set it up in an Excel sheet? Should take like 5 min and you can customize it to suit whatever specific needs you have.
