An Olympic-sized swimming pool is 50m in length. According to the International Swimming Federation (FINA), the specifications for an Olympic-size pool are as follows: Length â¦50m (164ft) width 25m (82ft) lane width 2.5m (8'2) water temp 25 - 28oC (77 - 82oF) min depth 2m (6'7) Volume min. 2,500m3 (88,000ft3)
Since the IAAF has standardized track lane widths at 1.22 meters the above formula calculates the distance around the track in lane 2 as 407.67 meters, lane 3 as 415.33 meters, lane 4 as 423 meters, lane 5 as 430.66 meters, lane 6 as 433.38 meters, lane 7 as 446 meters and lane 8 as 453.66 meters.he Distances Around Each Lane. Since the distance around the track in lane one, the inside lane, is 400 meters the distance around the track for the other lanes can be calculated by knowing the lane width and a few other measurements.
