Shona Branton records a time of 1:06.59 in the women’s 100m breastroke at the Luxembourg Meet! Huge drop from her previous PB (1:07.79) and had a PB of 1:10.69 entering 2023, so a big last year for her. For context, her mark is the 6th all time in the event for a Canadian (#5 is Alexanne Lepage’s 1:06.59 at last years World Junior Championships)

 

If only Oleksiak/Ruck and Masse were in form for our women’s medley relay…

Didn’t predict the 100m breaststroke as being the most competitive race.

Summer McIntosh clocks a 8:11.27 in the women’s 800m freestyle at the Southern Zone South Selection Championships! :hyper::clap:
 

16th fastest performance all-time in essentially her 6th or 7th strongest event (the 15 before her are all Ledecky marks), and 2nd fastest performer all-time now, this time would’ve been enough to win gold at Tokyo 2020! She absolutely demolished THE Katie Ledecky (8:17.12), and became the first person in over 13 years to defeat her in a women’s 800m freestyle final! (Ledecky was 3rd 2010 Potomac Valley Championships, unsure as to who beat her) 

 

We’re witnessing a generation talent in the making. I can’t wait for Paris. 
 

I’d be highly surprised to her racing in this event at Trials/Olympics though, she doesn’t seem to enjoy racing distance free, and the final conflicts with the 200m IM Olympic final. She’ll probably race 4 individual events (women’s 200m IM/400m IM/400m FR/200m FL) and 1-2 relays at Paris (probably the women’s 4x100m FR and the 4x200FR) anything more than that seems unlikely given her schedule at recent meets.

Mary-Sophie Harvey is swimming at the Quebec Cup this weekend.

 

She's set a couple lifetime bests in the 100m butterfly (58.12) and 50m butterfly (27.28). Also swam the 100m freestyle in 54.93

 

But the most exciting result is her 200m freestyle time of 1:57.26. PB by half a second and under the OQT but this isn't a qualifying competition unfortunately.

 

Good signs for Paris.

Well it seems as if all of my swimming prayers (minus Oleksiak) have been answered. 
 

Kylie Masse is competing at the Spanish Spring Open this week, she ripped a 27.23 in the women’s 50m backstroke (#2 in 2023-24 only behind McKeown’s 26.86 WR) and recorded a 58.80 split during the mixed 4x100m medley relay. 
 

With Angus/Pickrem producing some excellent breaststroke splits during the relays/individual events at Worlds, along with the emergence of Branton/LePage, and Masse/Ruck’s resurgence after struggles in recent years, our women’s 4x100m medley relay is looking good for Paris.
