Why is the mile swim 1650 and not 1750 which would be a little closer to the actual distance of 1760 yards=1 mile. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you.

(But probably the governing body was the AAU - was USA Swimming around when the 1650 started showing up in the record books, around 1959 or the early 1960s?)
Thank you James. You've answered one of those questions that I've been searching for a long time. Finally, I can get a full night's sleep. lol
