User:Yboy83/Progression in British records in swimming

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following tables list the fastest time progression in various swimming events for British swimmers. There is no comprehensive list of such British record progression, so the data is drawn from the British Swimming ranking database [1] and various other sources. Hence the listings are highly likely to be incomplete.
