Multisport
Triathletes, duathletes, and other multisport competitors can
take advantage of the multisport activities, such as Triathlon or
Swimrun. During a multisport activity, you can transition
between activities and continue to view your total time and
distance. For example, you can switch from biking to running
and view your total time and distance for biking and running
throughout the multisport activity.
You can customize a multisport activity, or you can use the
default triathlon activity set up for a standard triathlon.

Swim Terminology
Length
: One trip down the pool.
Interval
: One or more consecutive lengths. A new interval starts
after a rest.
Stroke
: A stroke is counted every time your arm wearing the
device completes a full cycle.
Swolf
: Your swolf score is the sum of the time for one pool
length and the number of strokes for that length. For
example, 30 seconds plus 15 strokes equals a swolf score of
45. For open water swimming, swolf is calculated over 25
meters. Swolf is a measurement of swimming efficiency and,
like golf, a lower score is better.
Stroke Types
Stroke type identification is available only for pool swimming.
Your stroke type is identified at the end of a length. Stroke types
appear when you are viewing interval history. You can also
