After setting a new World Record in the women’s 200 butterfly last night, Summer McIntosh had another strong swim, touching in a 4:27.35 in the 400 IM. That is just 0.04 off her World leading 4:27.31 that she swam a month ago while in Austin, Texas.
McIntosh led the entire race and was out in a 59.92 at the 100 mark. She was out in a 59.18 on the fly leg of the race when she swam her World Record 4:23.65 at Canadian Trials a year ago.
Ella Jansen touched in a 4:38.17 here for 2nd, just off her lifetime best of a 4:37.35 from 2023. Today’s swim was her 2nd fastest of her career.
Mary-Sophie Harvey was 3rd in a 4:43.26. Harvey has been as fast as a 4:34.29, a time from the Canet stop of the Mare Nostrum tour this year in May. That time sits at #5 in the World so far this season.

Para Highlights
Danielle Dorris won the women’s S5-S7 50 fly in a 34.43.
Sebastian Massabie set a new Canadian Para Record while racing in the men’s S5-S7 50 fly, touching in a 35.21.

4:27 is solid.
It’s clear her focus was the 200 fly and I’m sure her real focus in general is Commonwealth Games, which should be an incredible meet as a whole. I’m so excited for the end of this summer. How many WR’s will have gone down by September?
Pan Pacific not Commonwealth Games
She’s not swimming CWG…
I was at the pool yesterday so I didn’t realise how poor quality was the live stream 😭. I’m glad I filmed the race with my phone cause the quality is way better
pretty disappointing time from msh…
She seems off at the meet. I hope she sneak onto the team and gets another shot at Pan Pacs.
She maybe shouldn’t have skipped the 100/200 free
4:27.35
Solid 4:27
4:27 for summer
Summer have fun and stay in the moment
I was just doing some thinking about that Summer/Kate debate again and i realized something interesting. Obviously Summer is the greater swimmer, but if I’m not mistaken Kate is really close to doing something nobody I can recall has done—
Has anyone ever held world records in 2 separate strokes that weren’t free and fly?
It seems impossible that nobody would have done it, and yet nobody comes to mind. Can somebody fact check me? Marchand is close in 2br/2fly, Douglass in 50 fr/2 br. But has anyone ever done it? Am I just dumb?
Do you count IM?
Ender had back/free/fly
Kristin Otto same. East German of course. Phelps was fly/free and very close to both backstrokes.
Another Canadian woman recently, actually. Maggie MacNeil had short course 100 fly and 50 back
And if we’re counting short course Douglass 100 FR / 200 BR
I guess I should have specified LCM. The fly/back combo is pretty common in SC cause of undies so I bet Maggie isn’t alone there
