02The field

How strong was the field?

A typical swimmer here is faster than 30 of every 100 swimmers of the same age and gender across New Zealand, by their best race of 2025.

Peers are New Zealand swimmers of the same age and gender, compared by the World Aquatics points of their best race (one scale for every stroke and distance; 1,000 is about world-record speed). Each swimmer is set by their best race of 2025, not of this meet alone: the figure says how strong the swimmers who came are.
