Katie Ledecky Breaks World Records Whenever She Wants
We hear phrases like these all the time in our sport...
  • ​"Every four years"
  • "I'm a taper swimmer"
  • 'I'm not rested"
  • "I didn't hit my taper"
For ​Katie Ledecky, breaking world records doesn't have to come via the perfect taper. She literally just breaks them whenever and wherever.

Exhibit A: 800m freestyle WR at the Arena Pro Series in Austin



Exhibit B: 1500m Freestyle WR in Conroe,Texas. 



There you have it...toss on your swimming trunks, head out to your backyard pool, and break a few world records. 'Cause why not?
