Personal Records in Swimming - some distances are missing

I find the list of supported distances for tracking of personal records in swimming somewhat incomplete. The list of currently tracked distances contains: 100m, 100yd, 400m, 500yd, 750m, 1000m, 1000yd, 1500m, 1650yd, longest swim. I only care about distances in meters, luckily Garmin Connect web lets me to hide those I do not care about. But I miss 50m, 200m, 800m and 10000m, all FINA recognized race distances. Ideally, I would also like to define my own swim distances.

I would also love to see those distances added.

Having 25m would also be nice for sprints.

The limited set of Personal Records for Pool Swimming distances makes no sense. Garmin watches now support doing Critical Swim Speed (CSS) workouts with a 400 yard or meter time trial and then a 200 yard…

I was just thinking exactly this, especially the 50m and 200m. 200m is also needed for CSS calculations so would be really useful.

I agree. 25m would be really handy too.

Garmin watches now support doing Critical Swim Speed (CSS) workouts with a 400 yard or meter time trial and then a 200 yard or meter time trial. But out of those distances, Garmin Connect only supports 400 m. Where are 400 yd, 200 m, and 200 yd?
