Ellie Simmonds (Boldmere) broke a world record on the penultimate day of action at the British Para-Swimming International Meet in Glasgow.
Paralympic Champion Simmonds knocked a second off her world record in the S6 400m Freestyle, lowering the record she set nearly four years ago at the London 2012 Paralympic Games and setting a new standard of 5:18.69.
“I knew I had that in me,” Simmonds said. “I knew training was going really well leading into the competition but I am so happy. I’ve just got to focus on my training now and see what I can improve on so I can swim the best that I can in Rio.”
