Is there a formula or a way to convert short course times to long course? Thanks!

Answers

for short course times to long course you can use the formula short course time multiplied by 1.1 then added to the difference in the number of turns of the short course event minus the long course event

example:to calculate the long course time for a 50 yard freestyle time of 25.5 25.5 times 1.1=28.05+1=29.05
