A. Determining the individual pace factor.

Number of Paces
Trial 20 m 40 m 60 m
1 30 53 83
2 28 53 83
3 27 52 83
4 27 58 83
5 26 53 80
Sum 138 269 412
Average 27.6 53.8 79.3
m/step 0.72 0.74 0.73

Pace Factor = (∑ m/step) m/step=distance

3 average
= 2.19/3

Pace Factor = 0.73 m

B. Determining the distance using the individual pace factor.

Trial Number of Places
1 225
2 227
3 221
4 224
5 2227
Sum 1124
Average 224.8
Pace Distance 164.1m
Tape Distance 158 m

Discrepancy = Pace Distance – Tape Distance

= 164.1 m – 158 m

Discrepancy = 6.1m
