Worked example

Worked example

15000m in 60 minutes is an average split of 2:00 (3600 × 500 ÷ 15000), which is 202.5 watts at an even pace.

How it is worked out

The average split is the 60-minute time (3600 seconds) scaled to a 500m split: split = 3600 × 500 ÷ distance. Watts then come from that average split: watts equal 2.80 divided by (split ÷ 500) cubed. The figures assume the same pace over the whole distance. They show what a time needs, not a pacing plan.
