There are roughly 1600 meters in a miles, so your 1500 meter time multiplied by 1600/1500, or 16/15, would give you a mile time. For example, a 6:00 1500 time would be a 6:24 mile.

How do you convert a 1600 meter race time into the equivlent 1 mile race time?

1 mile = 1608 meters, so they are pretty much the same


What is the olmypic record for one mile?

The mile run is not an Olympic event. The closest one is the 1500 meter run, which is 0.932 mile. At the time I write this ... end of July 2012 ... I don't know what will happen at London. The current Olympic record for that event was set at Sydney in 2000 by Noah Ngeny of Kenya, who ran 1500 meters in 3:32.07 .


How do you convert a 1600 meter race time into the equilvent 1 mile race time?

One mile equals to 1 609.344 meters. Countries that use International System of Units that imported some contests such as a mile race or a quarter mile sprint rounded the mile to 1 600 meters and its quarter to 400 meters. For practical terms you might use the 1 600 m race time as the same as the one mile race time, but for precision you may use the full conversion rate bolded above.


How do you convert seconds to meters?

A second is a time measurement, a meter is distance. There is no conversion.


How do you convert 1500 meter times to mile times?

"it depends on your pace, but it is only 100 meters short of a mile. So, add somewhere from 20 to 30 seconds."Adding 20 to 30 seconds doesn't take a runner's pace into consideration. When converting for qualifying standards, I use the following formula...1500 Meter time in seconds X 1.079709247 =converted mile time.For instance, a 4:00.00 1500 meter time would be converted by doing this...convert 4:00 to seconds. This would give you 240.00 seconds...Then240.00 x 1.079709247 =259.13... This is a 4:19.13 Mile(the exact conversion of 1500 meters to 1609.343998 meters would use 1.072895999, but we assume that you slow a bit the longer your run.)Using 1.0797 or about 1.08 allows for some slowing but it may not be enough. An interesting way to look at it is to compare the world records for both races. Interestingly at the current time the world record for both events (for men) is held by HichamEl Guerroujwho set the 1500 m. record in July 1998 in Rome at 3:26.0 and the following summer (July 1999) set the 1 mile record of 3:43.1 at the same stadium. The ratio is 1.083, only slightly greater than the 1.0797 suggested above. But the relative slowing over the extra 100 meters may be greater the slower one is running. Also the mile run is not run so frequently as the 1500 meter run so the 1500 meter record should advance more rapidly and make the comparison less valid. Some evidence for the greater relative slowing over the extra 100 meters at a slower pace is that the ratio for the women's world records in the two events is 1.096. But in that case it is 2 different women a few years apart at different tracks so hardly definitive. Using 1.08 to 1.10 seems a reasonable range for a conversion factor for elite to veryfast middle distance runners.

How do you Converet a 1500 meter time to a mile?

1 mile equal 1609,344 m. The conversion is only approximated because the man is not only an instrument and the relation is not absolute linear: time for 1500 m = 1500 X time for 1 mile/1609,344

Who won the 2004 Olympics in the mens mile?

The mile run is not an event at the Olympics. The 1500 meter run is the closest event to a mile that is run at the Olympics. The 2004 gold medal winner of the 1500 was Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco in a time of 3:34.18.


What is a good 15000 meter run for high school girls?

Likely that you meant 1500 meters, or almost 1 mile. National class HS girls mile times are under 5 minutes, which equates to a 4:38 1500 m time. A 'good' mile time would be under 6 minutes, which equates to a 5:33 1500 m time.

1 mile swim record?

The longest race in international competitive swimming (in a pool) is 1500 meters. It is 0.93 of a mile and is often referred to colloquially as "the mile." In the U.S., swimmers also swim the 1650 yard freestyle, which is also sometimes called "the mile." In open water, there is a 1 mile race, but the world records differ from venue to venue. Thus, records are typically specific to the place -- there is no 1 record for entire world. For the 1500 meter freestyle: The world record for the long-course (50 meter pool) men's 1500 meter freestyle was set at the 2012 London Olympics by the Chinese swimmer, Sun Yang, with a time of 14:31.02. That is an average time per 100 meters of 58.07 seconds. The world record for the short course (25 meter pool) men's 1500 meter freestyle was set by Australian swimmer, Grant Hackett, at the 2001 Australian Short Course Championships in Perth, Australia. His time was 14:10.10, making his average time per 100 meters 56.7 seconds. The world record for the long course (50 meter pool) women's 1500 meter freestyle was set by U.S. swimmer, Kate Ziegler, at the 2007 TYR Meet of Champions in Mission Viejo, CA. Her time was 15:42.54, making her average time per 100 meters 1:02.84. The world record for the short course (25 meter pool) women's 1500 meter freestyle was set by Danish swimmer, Lotte Friis, at an unnamed 2009 local club meet in Copenhagen, Denmark. Her time was 15:28.65, making her average time per 100 meters 1:01.91.

You cannot convert minutes to meter per second. because minutes is a time unit and meter per second is a velocity unit.
