You'd be better to use a a scientific calculator, or use a statistical calculator online to calculate sd.

ES is simply the difference between the highest and lowest values.

Argue with a fool, and all the casual observer will see is two fools arguing.

ES is just the difference from the lowest velocity in the test series to the highest.

SD takes a little more working out, but still easy.
