How many laps are in a mile??

• Length = One end of the pool to other is 25 yards
• Lap = Down and back is 50 yards
• 1 mile = 1,650 yards = Approximately 66 lengths or 33 laps

(We use a competitive mile, which is slightly less than an accurate mile. Comes down to meters vs yards)

How can you get to 100 miles??  It’s as easy as:

• 2 miles a week equals 100 miles in about 50 weeks
• 3 miles a week equals 100 miles in about 33 weeks
• 1 mile a day, 5 days a week, equals 100 miles in 20 weeks
