PAULA GOMEZ DE FRUTOS

ESP

Paula is a swimmer from Spain, a sprinter, whose official competitive record spans 10 seasons and 142 meets.

Her recorded career begins in 2012, and one of her earliest marks still on file is the 400 individual medley in 5:57.82, raced in Valladolid. She started out alongside C.N. IMD - CIUDAD DE SEGOVIA.

Her signature event is the 100 backstroke, the event she has raced the most, followed by the 100 breaststroke and 100 freestyle. Backstroke is where her specialisation lies (79 meets), while freestyle appears in more meets (99 meets and 123 recorded swims spread across 5 different distances) because she races it across the full distance range rather than as a main event.

Her fastest 100 backstroke stands at 1:10.71, set in long course (50 m) at Valladolid.

The record runs unbroken from 2012 to 2021: 10 consecutive seasons without a single missing year. 2017 is the busiest season on record, with 82 verified individual swims.

Those meets span 6 different venues (Valladolid, Madrid, Salamanca and Oviedo…). She has raced for CLUB NATACION CIUDAD DE AVILA and C.N. IMD - CIUDAD DE SEGOVIA.

The last race on record is dated July 3, 2021 in Valladolid, with 4 swims: 38.54 in the 50 breaststroke, 34.87 in the 50 backstroke and 1:26.43 in the 100 breaststroke, all in long course (50 m). She closes this record with 32 current event personal bests and 282 all-time PB improvements, across 410 verified official swims in competitions governed by RFEN.
