LUIS GONZALEZ MARTINEZ

ESP

Luis is a swimmer from Spain, a sprinter and an international traveller on the circuit, whose official competitive record spans 9 seasons, 2 countries and 102 meets.

His recorded career begins in 2011, and one of his earliest marks still on file is the 100 breaststroke in 1:26.74, raced in Valladolid. He started out alongside CD ACUATICO LEON.

His signature event is the 100 backstroke, the event he has raced the most, followed by the 100 freestyle and 50 freestyle. Backstroke is where his specialisation lies (62 meets), while freestyle appears in more meets (68 meets and 93 recorded swims spread across 5 different distances) because he races it across the full distance range rather than as a main event.

His fastest 100 backstroke stands at 1:03.62, set in long course (50 m) at Valladolid.

The record runs unbroken from 2011 to 2019: 9 consecutive seasons without a single missing year. 2018 is the busiest season on record, with 54 verified individual swims.

He is a genuinely international swimmer: the official record spans 2 countries (Spain and UNK), including 1 of 102 meets outside Spain.

Those meets span 5 different venues (Valladolid, Salamanca, Gijón and Oviedo…). He has raced for FED. CASTILLA-LEON NATACION, CD ACUATICO LEON and C.N. LEON.

Latest competition: LEÓN, on November 9, 2019, with 3 swims: 26.56 in the 50 freestyle, 1:06.37 in the 100 backstroke and 1:06.41 in the 100 individual medley, all in short course (25 m). He closes this record with 31 current event personal bests and 260 all-time PB improvements, across 304 verified official swims in competitions governed by RFEN.
