Cheeeese and rice.... The mindset required to do this is unfathomable to me. She has had nothing to chase but her own world record for like 4 years...and yet continues to get stronger
She's about to shatter the 800 and 1500 record in Tokyo, isn't she...oh boy. Also, thank god they finally have 1500 for women so average people can see the full Ledecky experience at the Olympics.
Crazy... Is it normal that they show you the number of the laps you already got? Cause here in Germany they show you the number of laps you still have to swim...
What you see here is a record that will probably never be broken. 15:20:48 will likely never be reached by anyone again. There are only three other female swimmers besides Ledecky to even swim the 1500m on the short course faster than Ledecky did in this race on the long course.
She obviously broke the world record and that’s great but breaking it by 5 seconds isn’t really that impressive for a 1500. Over the full race you only have to drop like .2 of a second a 50
Billy Bob lol no yeah dropping 5 seconds over a short distance race is but when the race is that Long it’s not really shattering the record. It’s basically the equivalent of breaking the 50 time by .05 of a second. Yeah you break it but it’s not shattering it
When Janet Evans did 8.16 in 800m everyone said that 1.02 pace was just unreal and now she is almost swimming 1.01 for 1500m

Are you kidding me?...that's incredible...congrats Katie!
My Queen right there!!! What a legend.
Can't believe she almost lapped another Olympic gold medalist.
Being her while swimming must be a lonely business xD
She has to be part dolphin she's Beyond fantastic
BROO SHE LAPPED 3 PEOPLE!!!
Pretty sure that'd be my time if I was running LOL
Can't stop watching

Her 800m split in this race was faster than any other woman has swam the 800m freestyle race. Absolutely incredible.

Katie Ledecky is a beast!

Damn she got pretty buffed
Yep, and that's year round. There is no 'end of the season'.

She is my idol 💟

Kai Rothkranz it is normal here in USA
Oh ok... Thank you!
Legend
How many lengths is a 1500?, I would love to k now! x
Proud_Hufflepuff 45 I believe 30, but it’s like midnight and I can’t do math correctly right now
yep 30 in long course, 60 short
easy 1500m/50m per length = 30 laps

ledecky went 15:30 in a “slow pool today” but sadly i don’t think she’ll break this record

one of the most moronic things i have ever read
I don’t think you are a swimmer dropping more than 5 seconds shows a huge improvement
Billy Bob lol no yeah dropping 5 seconds over a short distance race is but when the race is that Long it’s not really shattering the record. It’s basically the equivalent of breaking the 50 time by .05 of a second. Yeah you break it but it’s not shattering it
That's a big improvement, its so hard to stay in the pace for long distance swim
Alright let’s see you do it ;3
