The maths behind it

This tool uses Pace per 100 m = time ÷ distance × 100. SWOLF = strokes per length + seconds per length; lower is more efficient. Every intermediate value is shown on screen, so the result can be checked by hand.

SWOLF captures the trade-off that makes swimming different from running: you can go faster by thrashing harder or by gliding further per stroke, and only the second scales. Watch it fall over months rather than chasing a fast single length.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a limit on how often I can use the Swim Pace Calculator?
Free, unlimited, and no email address required. You can use it a hundred times a day and nothing changes.
Does anything I enter leave my computer?
No. The Swim Pace Calculator runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your input never reaches inputtesthub.com or any third party — open your browser's Network tab while you use it and you will see no request go out.
How is the result calculated?
It uses Pace per 100 m = time ÷ distance × 100. SWOLF = strokes per length + seconds per length; lower is more efficient. The full working is printed under the result, so you can follow every step rather than trusting a black box.
What problem does the Swim Pace Calculator solve?
The jobs it is built for: tracking pace across sessions. Working out a target 1,500 m time. Measuring stroke efficiency with SWOLF. It is built for exactly those cases rather than being a general-purpose tool with this bolted on.
Is there a catch?
SWOLF captures the trade-off that makes swimming different from running: you can go faster by thrashing harder or by gliding further per stroke, and only the second scales. Watch it fall over months rather than chasing a fast single length.
What figures does the Swim Pace Calculator work from?
SWOLF is Strokes + seconds per length. Lower SWOLF is More efficient. 25 m pool is Standard short course. These are printed on the page itself, so you do not have to take them on trust.
Can I rely on this for exact work?
The calculation runs in double precision and the result is shown to ten significant figures, so converting a value and converting it back returns the original. What is displayed is rounded for readability; what is copied is not.
