Swim race strategy, minus the guesswork

Know your pace before you hit the blocks. Then race it.

Paceboard turns a goal time into a clear race plan: target pace cards, split charts, and a length-by-length breakdown built for swimmers who want to race smarter, not just harder.

What it does

A race plan your swimmer can actually remember.

The best pacing plan is simple enough to use under pressure. Paceboard keeps the important numbers visible and turns the race into manageable chunks.

25

Pace cards

See target pace per 25, 50, and 100 so swimmers know the rhythm before the race starts.

Split chart

Visualize how each 50 should feel relative to average pace: quicker early, controlled middle, strong close.

Σ

Breakdown table

Review every split, cumulative time, and delta from average so the strategy is specific.

Course support

Build plans across SCY, SCM, and LCM without forcing swimmers or coaches to do race-day math.
