By the time an exhausted Betty Brussel finally swims to the finish and pulls herself from the pool, an Olympic athlete could have covered the same distance at least three times. But the 99-year-old Canadian’s quiet determination has led her to shatter world records and transformed her into an unlikely celebrity within the amateur swim community. At a weekend swim meet in the British Columbia city of Saanich, Brussel broke the existing world record in the 400-metre freestyle, knocking nearly four minutes off the previous standard in the 100- to 104-year-old age class. She repeated her record-breaking performances in 50-metre backstroke and the 50-metre breaststroke that same day. 'When I’m racing, I don’t think about anything. Nothing. I just count the laps, so that I know how many I have left. I always try to find a pace that I can sustain – you’re asking a lot from your body in these races. And on the last lap, well, I give it everything I have.' Born in the Netherlands in 1924, Brussel and her siblings learned to swim in the canals near Amsterdam. In 1959, she and her husband Gerrit, moved to Canada, settling outside the town of Grand Forks, where they raised three children. Brussel first took interest in competitive swimming in her mid-sixties, when she raced in the British Columbia Senior Games. 'I had no idea what I was doing,' she said. But she was hooked. 'I really enjoy swimming. I’d love the feeling of gliding through the water and it just makes me feel very good.' Even though she’s not yet 100, swimming uses the competitors’ birth year to determine the age category and so Brussel will compete in the 100 to 104 category for the rest of the year. Over the years, she’s maintained a consistent training regime at the pool – twice a week, with no drills. 'What can I say? I’m a bit lazy'
