Rowing Stroke Rate from Meters and Time Calculator

SR = strokes · 60 / time_s; pace per 500 m derived from time/distance.

Compute the rowing stroke rate (strokes per minute) from total strokes and elapsed time, plus the 500 m pace from total distance and time. Standard ergometer racing rates: 28-32 spm (steady-state), 34-40 (sprint). Reports SR, total distance per stroke, and pace per 500 m.
