ADRIAN SANTOS ESPINOSA

ESP

Adrian is a swimmer from Spain, a backstroke specialist and a sprinter, whose official competitive record spans 15 seasons, 11 countries and 90 meets.

His recorded career begins in 2012, and one of his earliest marks still on file is the 50 backstroke in 58.67, raced in Pompano Beach.

His signature event is the 50 backstroke, his reference distance in backstroke, ahead of the 100 backstroke and 200 backstroke. Backstroke is the backbone of the whole record: 60 meets and 136 recorded swims.

His fastest 50 backstroke stands at 23.82, set in long course (50 m) at Campeonato de España Absoluto de invierno.

His record includes national championships, between 2021 and 2025 (Campeonato de Cataluna Absoluto Open de Natacion and Spanish Winter National Championships (25m)). A representative mark at that level is 23.82 in the 50 backstroke, recorded in long course (50 m). He also appears in international meets.

The record runs unbroken from 2012 to 2026: 15 consecutive seasons without a single missing year.

He is a genuinely international swimmer: the official record spans 11 countries (Spain, France, Monaco, Singapore, the United States, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands and Sweden), including 20 of 90 meets outside Spain.

Those meets span 10 different venues (Mon, Sgp, Bel and Gbr…). He has raced for Metro Aquatic Club of Miami, Bartow Senior High School and A.D.M.ALCALA DEL RIO.

Still active: the directory includes official activity in the 2026 season. His most recent recorded season is 2026. He holds 18 current event personal bests and 98 all-time PB improvements across 233 verified official swims in competitions governed by RFEN and World Aquatics.
