As you can see, for the 50 meter Freestyle, the SWOLF is 30, which is less than the time swum (40). The length of the pool was set to 25 meters, so I swam 50 meters in a 25-meter pool with turns. Why is this SWOLF value smaller than the time swum? Is it due to the fact that I set the length of the pool to 25 meters? By the way, when I swam 50 meters in Freestyle, the SWOLF values were smaller than the time I swam in all cases.

Thanks for your reply. After checking the figures myself, I found that SWOLF calculates the conversion to 25 meters when I swim a distance longer than 25 meters. I checked my data by converting it to 25 meters and found that the SWOLF was calculated almost exactly.
Hello tumblingdown,
Be sure to check if you're performing consistent strokes for the duration of the swim, as nonstandard strokes (for example, resting/floating on back while kicking) may cause inaccuracies.
