Katie Ledecky does it again. 🤯 ⁣ •⁣ Nearly a decade after setting the 800m freestyle world record in Rio, she breaks her own mark, finishing in 8:04.12 at the TYR Pro Swim Series in Fort Lauderdale. 🔥⁣ •⁣ That's 10 years of dominance and now the top 10 fastest times ever in the event, all belonging to her. 🐐⁣ •⁣ Oh—and she finished nearly 20 seconds ahead of the next swimmer. 😮⁣ •⁣ “I’m not letting this opportunity go to waste,” she said. And she didn’t. 👏⁣ •⁣ On the same day, Gretchen Walsh also made history, becoming the first woman to go sub-55 in the 100m butterfly. 🇺🇸 ⁣ •⁣ A world record party indeed. 🎉 #thegist⁣ •⁣ #swimming #worldrecord #katieledecky #womenssports #womensswimming
