Ok, so i'm wondering how accurate the below time conversion tool is (any opions?)
www.swimmingworldmagazine.com/.../conversions.asp
Here is why i'm asking... If this tool is accurate it means that during my first meet this past weekend I made the National cut (based on 2011 SCY time standars) in the 50F and 100 BR!! This is very exciting to me and makes me want to start swimming more frequently and seriously.
This is what the conversion tool indicated ...
50F LCM @ 33.21 = 50F SCY 28.56 (NAT QUAL time 29.14)
100 BR LCM @ 1:34.85 = 100 BR SCY 1:21.19 (NAT QUAL time 1:22.87)
I think my fever has returned! Man how I have missed this sport!
Also, does USMS accecpt conversion times for qualification?
The Swimming World Time Conversion Utility is internally inconsistent. In other words, you can go from meters to yards, or yards to meters, but don't try to go from meters to meters.
Wow, good detective work! I've used that converter a lot, and occasionally found myself thinking "Huh? Is that right?". But I pretty much trusted it, till now. Now I know how to get around it!
