Summer McIntosh continued to make waves at the Canadian Trials, shattering the world record in the 200 IM as she blasted into the wall in 2:05.70.

McIntosh’s race knocked .42 off of the previous standard of 2:06.12, set by Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu back in 2015, and marked the first sub-2:06 performance in history in the event. McIntosh notably won gold in this event at the Olympics in Paris, where she set the former Canadian record with a personal best time of 2:05.56; her swim tonight took nearly a second off of her lifetime best.

McIntosh delivered a showstopping race tonight. She split 57.99 on the opening 100 to be .95 ahead of the world record pace at the halfway mark, only to fall off the a bit on the breaststroke leg. McIntosh trailed Hosszu’s world record pace by .14 heading into the final 50 before racing home in 29.95 to shatter the old record.

This marks McIntosh’s second world record of the meet so far; she broke the 400 free world record on day one, obliterating the previous standard set by Ariarne Titmus by over a second (3:54.18). McIntosh also set a new Canadian record in the 800 free on day two, lowering her own standard by almost five seconds (8:05.07).

McIntosh is currently entered in three more events as the meet continues, so we could see even more impressive swims from her over the next few days.
