Triathlon Time Formula
Predicted 140.6 Triathlon Time (h:m:s)
·
Actual half marathon time
x 2.388305 = marathon time
o 1:48:55 x 2.388305 = 4:20:7.57
·
Marathon time x 3
= 140.6 tri time
o 4:20:7.57 x 3 = 13:0:22.72
·
Bicycle 180.25 km (112 mile) split = 140.6 tri time / 1.8561
o 13:0:22.72 / 1.8561 = 7:0:26.4
·
Swim 3.86 km (2.4 mile) split = Subtracting run and bicycle
time from 140.6 tri time
o 13:0:22.72 – 7:0:26.4
– 4:20:7.57 = 1:39:48.75
·
Summary
o 140.6 triathlon time 13:0:22.72
o Swim 3.86 km (2.4
miles) 1:39:48.75
o Bicycle 180.25 km
(112 miles) 7:0:26.4
o Run 42.2 km (26.2
miles) 4:20:7.57
Predicted 70.3 Triathlon Time (h:m:s)
·
Actual half marathon
time x 3 = 70.3 tri time
o 1:48:55 x 3 = 5:26:45
·
Bicycle 90.12 km (56 mile) split = 70.3 tri time / 1.8561
o 5:26:45 / 1.8561 = 2:56:2.47
·
Swim 1.93 km (1.2mile) split = Subtracting run and bicycle
time from 70.3 tri time
o 5:26:45 –
2:56:2.47 – 1:48:55 = 0:41:47.53
·
Summary
o 70.3 triathlon time 5:26:45
o Swim 1.93 km (1.2
miles) 0:41:47.53
o Bicycle 90.12 km
(56 miles) 2:56:2.47
o Run 21.1 km (13.1
miles) 1:48:55
Half Marathon Time Translating to Triathlon Time
Half marathon time x 3 = 70.3
tri time
Half marathon time x 2.388305 x 3
(7.164915) = 140.6 tri time
1 minute of half marathon = 7.164915 minutes of 140.6 triathlon
1:7:24.71 half marathon = 8:3:0 (1:7:24.71 x 7.164915) 140.6 tri time
17 hour 140.6 tri time limit equates to half marathon training runs faster
than 2:22:21.62
(17 / 7.164915)
Predicted Olympic Distance Triathlon
Time (h:m:s)
·
Swim 1.5 km split = reducing 1.2 mile (1.93 km) 70.3 tri swim
time
o 0:41:47.53 x (1.5/1.93) = 0:32:27.63
·
Bike 40 km split =
reducing 56 mile (90.12 km) 70.3 tri bike time x 5% faster
o 2:56:2.47 x (40/90.12) x 0.95 = 1:14:13.61
·
Run 10 km split = half marathon time / 2.388305
o 1:48:55 / 2.388305 = 0:45:36.25
·

140.6 Tri Time: Starting from a 0:45:36.25 10 km Run Time
·
10 km run x 2.388305
= half marathon time
o 0:45:36.25 x 2.388305 = 1:48:55

140.6 tri marathon time x
3 = 140.6 tri time
o 4:20:7.57 x 3 = 13:0:22.71
·
140.6 tri time /
1.8561 = bike 112 mile (180.25 km) split
o 13:0:22.71 / 1.8561 = 7:0:26.39
·
Swim 2.4 mile (3.86 km) = Subtract bike and run time from
140.6 tri time
o 13:0:22.71 – 7:0:26.39
