Hi Ockert and welcome to the site. A really quick conversion is 1.1. If you're changing a yards sendoff to meters, change the sendoff time to seconds and then multiply by 1.1. E.g., a 1:20 sendoff in yards would convert to a 1:28 sendoff for meters (80 seconds X 1.1 = 88 seconds = 1:28). To go the other way, divide by 1.1. E.g., your 1:25 meters sendoff would convert to a 1:17 sendoff in yards (85 seconds divided by 1.1 = 77 seconds = 1:17). So, you would need to do the conversions and then round up or down to the nearest 5-second increment (unless you want to do a lot of math while you're swimming). Hope this helps. |

Hello Ockert, just curiosity - where do you swim? |
|
|
Hey there, I don't train with a club etc anymore (used to swim with Santa van Jaarsveld at Maties in the early days and then with her at Strand Club) - but generally swim at the Wembley Square Virgin Active in Gardens over lunch times (Mon - Fri)

Maties are cool. They have very fast swimmers.
