The road to the 2026 Aquatics GB Championships officially runs through Edinburgh! In this episode of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast, we break down a massive weekend of racing at the Edinburgh International Swim Meet (EISM), featuring a historic British Record and a comeback from the Greatest of All Time.
The swim of the meet belongs to Freya Colbert. After dominating the 400m Freestyle (4:06.16) and the 200m IM (2:10.48), Colbert stunned the field in the 200m Freestyle. She became the first British woman in history to break the 1:55 barrier, clocking a sensational 1:54.98 British Record. We discuss where this puts her on the world stage heading into the summer.
It was a rollercoaster weekend for Adam Peaty. After a miss on the 100m Breaststroke podium—where World Junior Champion Filip Nowacki (1:00.26) claimed the breaststroke double—Peaty bounced back in the 50m Breaststroke (27.33) and ahead of rising threat of 18-year-old Max Morgan.
