PAULA SECO DE HERRERA CABRERA

ESP

Paula is a swimmer from Spain, a breaststroke specialist and an international traveller on the circuit, whose official competitive record spans 12 seasons, 3 countries and 113 meets.

Her recorded career begins in 2013, and one of her earliest marks still on file is the 25 freestyle in 22.16, raced in Córdoba. She started out alongside NAVIAL.

Her signature event is the 100 breaststroke, the event she has raced the most, followed by the 200 breaststroke and 50 breaststroke. Breaststroke is the backbone of the whole record: 66 meets and 173 recorded swims.

Her fastest 100 breaststroke stands at 1:14.45, set in long course (50 m) at Torremolinos.

Her record includes international meets, in 2023 (International Swimming Meeting of Algarve, Albufeira, POR). A representative mark at that level is 33.10 in the 50 breaststroke, recorded in short course (25 m).

The record runs unbroken from 2013 to 2024: 12 consecutive seasons without a single missing year. 2023 is the busiest season on record, with 79 verified individual swims.

She is a genuinely international swimmer: the official record spans 3 countries (Spain, UNK and Portugal), including 8 of 113 meets outside Spain.

Those meets span 10 different venues (Córdoba, Málaga, Cádiz and Palma…). She has raced for NAVIAL.

The last race on record is dated July 28, 2024 in Málaga, with 2 swims: 2:49.42 in the 200 breaststroke and 2:50.04 in the 200 breaststroke, all in long course (50 m).
