Why 1650 is not 1750?

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. Carl Selles :banana:

It's 1650 so that we can do cool broken swims of 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 +11. :banana:
