Avg Swimming pace inconsistency

Hey Folks,

Mentioned this when returned from the pool this morning. There seems to be different avg paces on the web - 1:59 and 2:09. Mobile app and watch itself show 1:59 only.

Cheers

Hi Kevin, thanks for quick response. Yes to first 2 points and the country is Australia.

I see that (on at least the last 3 Pool Swim activities) you are completing Drills as part of your Pool Swim activity. Drills will contribute to the "2:09 pace" figures, but only (non-drill) actual swim intervals will contribute to the "1:59 pace" figures. If you complete a Pool Swim activity without doing any drills (going into Drill Mode), I thin you will see that the figures will be consistent across the board.

Thanks Kevin, yep, that probably explains the 2:09, no problem with that.

I was more referring to the fact that the same data field called "avg pace" shows different numbers, I think that is confusing, besides it happens only when viewing on the web, nothing similar on mobile app or the watch itself.
