Scoring Formula: Running: P = A × (B - T)^C | Jumping/Throwing: P = A × (M - B)^C

Note: Points are rounded down to nearest whole number

Performance Analysis

Average per event: 0 points
Target for 1000 pts/event: 7,000 points total

Example Calculation

Women's Long Jump Example

Performance: 648 cm (6.48m)

Formula values: A = 0.188807, B = 210, C = 1.41

Calculation

P = A × (M - B)^C

P = 0.188807 × (648 - 210)^1.41

P = 0.188807 × 438^1.41

P = 1,001 points

Understanding Heptathlon Scoring

What is a Heptathlon?

A heptathlon is a track and field combined event consisting of seven disciplines. Athletes compete in all events over two days, with points awarded for each performance using the IAAF scoring tables. The athlete with the highest total score wins.

Scoring Formulas

  • Running: P = A × (B - T)^C (lower time = higher points)
  • Jumping: P = A × (M - B)^C (higher distance/height = higher points)
  • Throwing: P = A × (D - B)^C (greater distance = higher points)

Competition Differences

  • • 100m Hurdles

Manual Timing

For sprint and hurdle events up to 400m, manual timing adds 0.24 seconds to account for human reaction time differences compared to electronic timing.
