Another World Record for Katie Ledecky at Woodlands Meet

Olympic gold medalist Katie Ledecky has set another world record, this time in the 800 meter free at the Woodlands Senior Invitational. Her time, 8:11. That’s over two seconds off her former record and previous mark.

Just two days ago, Ledecky re-broke her world record in the 1,500 meter freestyle, also by lopping off two seconds.
