each lap is 50m so its 30 laps if you add 2 more laps you got a mile witch is a 1600 meter swim
If you're talking statute miles and not nautical miles, you'll have to swim approx. 1,931 meters to go 1.2 miles. In nautical miles, the answer is closer to 2,223 meters.
2414.016 m 1 mile = 1609.344 meter 1 meter = 0.00062 mi
Twenty in a 50 meter pool (Olympic), or 40 in a 25 yard pool (collegiate). However, there is no 1 km race in an olympic pool, it is either an 800 meter or a 1500 meter, which they call the mile.
The 1500 meter swim, which is approximately a mile, record is 14:34.56 by Grant Hackett from Australia. This record, along with other swimming records, can be found at- http://www.vilacom.net/swimming/men.php Actually, to approximate swimming a mile, one would have to swim 1609.34 meters -- that's 109.34 meters more than the 1500 meter swim or 2.19 more lengths of a 50 meter pool. (1 meter = 3.2808399 feet)
0.114 miles
4,500 meters is about 2.8 miles.
This was Vladimir Salnikov.
One lap is usually seen as there-and-back, so a lap is twice the length of the pool. So a lap in a 25 m pool is 50 m. 1.5 km is 1500 meters. 1500 / 50 = 30 It takes 30 laps in a 25 m pool to swim 1.5 km
to swim 800 meters in a 25 meter poll, you must swim 32 lengths, but to swim 800 YARDS, you only have to swim 29.26 lengths (so you should just swim 30 lenghts)
