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 3000m → 2 Mile factor is 1.08.

2 Mile time = 3000m time (seconds) × 1.08, rounded up
