    A record-breaking swim for Lewis Clareburt in Australia

    A record-breaking swim for Lewis Clareburt in Australia


    He's broken a national record in the 200 metre freestyle at the Queensland Championships, racing in a time of one minute, 43.03 seconds.

    That shaved .06 of a second off the 2012 time set by Matt Stanley.
