A mile in a 25 yard pool equals 71 lengths or 36 laps (1,760 yards in a mile).
A mile in a 25 meter pool equals 66 lengths or 33 laps (1,650 meters in a mile).
In a 50 Meter pool, a mile is 1,650 meters, which is 33 lengths or 17 laps of the pool.
2 lengths of a pool equals 1 lap.
In a 25 foot pool you must swim 221.2 laps to swim a mile. One lap is one time across the pool. A more common pool length at health clubs in the United States is 25 yards. In a pool of this size one must swim a little more than 70 laps to swim a mile. Occasionally you may find a 25 meter pool in which the number of laps is a little more than 64.
There are 5280 feet in a mile. Thirty-five 150 foot laps takes you 5250 feet. Another 30 feet (less than half the pool) and you're done.
38 laps exactly! Each mile has 4 quarters, thus: > 9 miles have 9 × 4 = 36 laps > a half mile has ½ × 4 = 2 laps for a total of 38 laps
Two and a half laps!
Four times. 1 mile = 1609 meters
Exactly 2.5 laps on a 400m track and 2.49 laps for a 440 yards track.
Assuming laps means two lengths (there and back in a lane): 1yd = 0.9144m 20yd = 18.288m 2 lengths = 36.576m 1km = 1000m = 1000m / 36.576m ~= 27.34 laps (just over 54 2/3 lengths)
If each lap is 25 yards you must swim 70.4 laps to reach one mile.
3 laps.Start off jogging and don't walk and you'll do alright
quarter mile track= 400 meters To be technically a mile is 1609 meters, be to make this a bit easier round it down to 1600 meters, So 4 laps to a mile, 9x4=36 + 2 for the half mile = 38 laps if you really want to make sure its the full 9.5, add on another 100 meter stretch, either the turn or striaght away and youll be a bit over but good
A mile is 1600m. So you would need to do 64 lengths to have done 1 mile.Which is 32 laps.32 Laps (down and back) = 1 mile64 Lengths ( 64 lengths X 25 meters/length = 1600 = 1 mile)Technically a mile is 1609 meters so you'd need to swim about 64.36 lengths if you absolutely must get to one mile exactly.There are 1,609.344 meters in a mile. Since there is confusion on what a "lap" is, I will include both a one length and two length answer.When 1 length = 1 lap, you would need to complete 64.3 laps for a mile (I would stop at 64 and call it a mile)When 2 lengths = 1 lap, you would need to complete 32.18 laps for a mile64. I think.1609 / 25 = 64 laps
64.37376 lengths to be exact. So in other words 32.1870 laps. Have fun buddy.
"4 laps around if your track is .25 mile, which most tracks are. Some might be a hair less." Since the standard for tracks built in the last 20+ years is 400M, then you must go 9 meters further than 4 laps. Over 90% of the outdoor tracks in existence are only 400M and will thus require the extra 9 meters to equal a true mile. This is why most track meets only run the 1500M or the 1600M and not the mile. Unfortunately, most people erroneously assume that 4 laps equal a mile, due to older tracks being built to a non-metric standard of 440 yards. If you want to finish on the common start/finish line and you'd like to run/walk a mile, then you should start at the beginning of the 4x400M relay exchange zone, which is 10 meters before the finish line. By doing that you will run/walk about 1 meter more than 1 mile, but you won't be short of a mile, as you would be if you only do 4 laps.
