Part of the elite IM and distance groups at Stanford, her best event had been the 400 IM, though her first NCAA title came in the 500-yard freestyle as an underclassman.<\/p>\n<p>Forde was the favorite to win the NCAA title in the 400 IM in 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic wiped out her chance, along with the chances of everyone else.<\/p>\n<p>She wasn\u2019t as clear of a favorite going into this year\u2019s meet, and she took the third seed after prelims.<\/p>\n<p>But Forde proved why she was last year, and still is this year, the top 400 IM swimmer in the country, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/brooke-forde-wins-stanfords-fifth-straight-400-im-ncaa-title\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">winning in 4:01.57<\/a> to break the Greensboro pool record.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is really special. It is definitely a different feel than when I won the 500. That was sort of unexpected and awesome. But this is my event, what I train for every single practice. Validation is a good word. Seeing that pay off, especially after last year not having a meet, is huge,\u201d Brooke Forde told <em>Swimming World<\/em>. \u201cI felt like this was kind of a long time coming with last year being canceled. The 400 IM is what I have been focusing on this whole year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Forde won the title after only racing in the event in one dual meet and at Pac-12s this abbreviated season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is really hard to stay motivated without the moments of swimming the event. I raced it so few times,\u201d Forde said. \u201cIt was something I struggled with throughout the year. It is definitely more mental than physical. The longer I went without swimming it, the more scared of it I was. Doing it at Pac-12s helped me get over that and be ready to rely on the training and know that I had the preparation even if I hadn\u2019t raced it a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She kept the Cardinal legacy in the event with the 13<sup>th<\/sup> NCAA title in the 400 IM by a Stanford woman, the most for any school in any individual event at women&#8217;s Division I NCAAs.<\/p>\n<p>Forde joins the title ranks of <strong>Janet Evans, Summer Sanders, Michelle Griglione, Julia Smit, Maya DiRadio<\/strong>, and her former teammate <strong>Ella Eastin <\/strong>as champs in the event.<\/p>\n<p>Pretty elite company &#8211; three of those names have Olympic medals to their name in the 400 IM.<\/p>\n<p>Being behind Eastin and <strong>Katie Ledecky<\/strong>\u2014 the fastest duo in NCAA history \u2014 on her own team, can be tough, despite its advantages.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_465475\" style=\"width: 413px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-465475\" data-attachment-id=\"465475\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/brooke-forde-continues-stanford-legacy-in-400-im-earns-validation-with-ncaa-title\/brooke-forde-stanford-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/brooke-forde-stanford-scaled.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1703\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D780&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1616091106&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;200&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;8000&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.001&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"brooke-forde-stanford\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;brooke-forde-stanford&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: NCAA Media&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/brooke-forde-stanford-700x500.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/brooke-forde-stanford-1024x681.jpeg\" class=\" wp-image-465475\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/brooke-forde-stanford-700x500.jpeg\" alt=\"brooke-forde-stanford\" width=\"403\" height=\"288\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-465475\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Brooke Forde.

That has been something our team has been talking about a lot, being \u2018Caretakers of a Legacy\u2019 \u2014 the Stanford legacy. It is about performing at NCAAs. This is Stanford\u2019s event and I have been lucky enough to train with Ella and Katie, the best 400 IMers in history,\u201d Forde said.<\/p>\n<p>She took the \u201cCaretakers of a Legacy\u201d to heart, even writing it on her foot before the race. It helped her focus on the goal that she has had for more than two years.<\/p>\n<p>The 4:01 was not her best time. That came in 2019 when she finished second (3:59.26) to Eastin, who capped her career by winning the event all four years.<\/p>\n<p>But a best time is unexpected by most swimmers coming out of a training year that was uneven \u2014\u00a0and even nonexistent at times \u2014 because of the pandemic and all of the challenges that have come with it.<\/p>\n<p>Forde said with all of the waiting and the adversity, this title is even sweeter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI felt really proud of myself, honestly. It has been a really hard year for everyone, especially for my team and myself getting through this year,\u201d Brooke Forde said. \u201cI was really proud that I persevered through that and was able to keep my head in the right place and get something like this out of it and know it was all worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first NCAA title for Brooke Forde was a little unexpected.
