Bethany is a swimmer from the United Kingdom, an international traveller on the circuit, whose official competitive record spans 8 seasons, 9 years, 2 countries and 33 meets.
Her recorded career begins in 2010, and one of her earliest marks still on file is the 200 butterfly in 3:22.91, raced in Dundee.
Her signature event is the 200 individual medley, the event she has raced the most, followed by the 50 freestyle and 100 freestyle. Individual medley is where her specialisation lies (19 meets), while freestyle appears in more meets (30 meets and 57 recorded swims spread across 6 different distances) because she races it across the full distance range rather than as a main event.
Her fastest 200 individual medley stands at 2:48.37, set in long course (50 m) at Midland Age Group Championship, Dundee, SCO.
Her record includes international meets, between 2014 and 2015 (North District SASA Grand Prix and COAST Grand Prix). A representative mark at that level is 1:17.59 in the 100 butterfly, recorded in long course (50 m).
After a 2-year break between 2016 and 2018, she came back to racing and the record picks up again in 2018. 2013 is the busiest season on record, with 39 verified individual swims.
She is a genuinely international swimmer: the official record spans 2 countries (the United Kingdom and UNK), including 5 of 33 meets outside the United Kingdom.
Those meets span 7 different venues (Dundee, Aberdeen, Glasgow and Sheffield…). She has raced for Perth City Swim Club (Scotland) and Perth City.
Latest competition: BUCS Short Course Swimming Championships 2018 in Sheffield, on November 11, 2018, with 2 swims: 1:17.24 in the 100 backstroke and 1:08.94 in the 100 freestyle, all in short course (25 m) and 1 PB improvement. She closes this record with 31 current event personal bests and 123 all-time PB improvements, across 162 verified official swims in competitions governed by Aquatics GB.
