She was already an Olympic champion by that point in her career, having secured her initial gold medal at the 2012 Games in London.<\/p>\n<p>At the 2013 World Championships in Barcelona, Ledecky entered competition in pursuit of Rebecca Adlington\u2019s world mark in the 800 free. That time of 8:14.10 was recorded by the British star en route to gold at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, and endured until Ledecky went 8:13.86 in Spain.<\/p>\n<p>Ledecky\u2019s world record marked the first of six she has set in the 800 freestyle, with the global standard sliced by 9.98 seconds between that first record and what Ledecky popped at the TYR Pro Series stop in Fort Lauderdale. But here\u2019s an even more incredible stat to digest.<\/p>\n<p>During her career, Ledecky has produced 38 performances faster than the 8:14.10 of Adlington, the first world record she broke in the 800 free. THIRTY-EIGHT! Meanwhile, only four other women (<strong>Summer McIntosh<\/strong>, <strong>Ariarne Titmus<\/strong>, <strong>Paige Madden<\/strong> and <strong>Li Bingjie<\/strong>) have gone faster than Adlington\u2019s former world record, achieving the feat a combined nine times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Week of Katie Ledecky Stats: How Many Times Inside Rebecca Adlington&#8217;s Former World Record?
