Where the factor comes from

The U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) publishes standardized event conversion factors used by coaches and meet entry systems: “Take the competitor’s total time in seconds and multiply by the factor shown. Always round up the last digit of the final time.” The 1600m → Mile factor is 1.0058.

Mile time = 1600m time (seconds) × 1.0058, rounded up
