Techniques are provided for retrieving performance data from an exercise database. At a server device, data entries are stored in a database. Each of the exercise data entries comprises one or more performance metrics for a corresponding metric category. The server receives first performance data of an individual performing an exercise event and selects one of the exercise entries in the database as a selected exercise entry. The server determines a metric category for the first performance data and matches the metric category of the first performance data with a same metric category for the selected exercise entry. The server retrieves second performance data from the selected exercise data entry. The second performance data belongs to a metric category that does not match the metric category of the first performance data. The server assigns the second performance data as data associated with the exercise event.
