What is Lap Distance?

Lap distance is the length of one complete circuit or lap in a given course or track. It is calculated by dividing the total distance of the course by the total number of laps completed. This measurement is commonly used in athletics, motorsports, swimming, and other activities where participants complete multiple laps of a track or course.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Lap Distance (Dlap):

\[ Dlap = \frac{TD}{L} = \frac{5000}{20} = 250 \text{ meters} \]

The Lap Distance (Dlap) is 250 meters.
