2026 Mare Nostrum Tour — Canet
Wednesday May 27 — Thursday May 28, 2026 Canet-en-Roussillon, France Prelims at 9 am local (3 a.m. ET)/Finals 5:30 p.m. local (11:30 a.m. ET) LCM (50 Meters) Psych Sheets Meet Central Results Live Stream Day 1 Finals Live RecapSalut, mes amies (et mes amis). Je suis triste d’annoncer qu’aujourd’hui est le dernier jour de compétition au Mare Nostrum – Canet. Mais il y aura beaucoup de courses rapides, alors en garde!
Sadly (or fortunately) my Spanish is much worse than my French, so there won’t be any preambles in Spanish from me for the Barcelona Stop, but that’s not because I wouldn’t try, it’s just that my colleague Madeline, will be guiding you through the live recap.
But let’s not jump too far ahead as we have plenty of fast racing on the schedule today. Things kick off with the 50s of breaststroke and freestyle, events which are chock full of stars. The USA’s McKenzie Siroky is the top seed in the first event, and fresh off a new PB in the 100 yesterday, will be looking to break her days old Mare Nostrum record from Monaco. The men’s Canet record holder Ilya Shymanovich, too, will be looking to break his record from last year, but has to first pass by Michael Houlie, who set the top time this morning in prelims.
The women’s 50 free sees the 2nd fastest 100 freestyler ever return to the pool. After ripping a 51.86 yesterday to close out the session, Dutch sprinter Marrit Steenbergen returns to the scene of the crime and will take on the even splashier and dashier 50 free. The Dutchwomen isn’t the top seed and will have to pass by compatriot Milou Van Wijk if she wishes to climb to the top of the podium.
The meet certainly should start with fireworks, but likely will end with them as well as Siobhan Haughey will look to close out the Canet stop with yet another Mare Nostrum record. After breaking the late and great Camille Muffat‘s record in the 200 free in Monaco the Hong Kong Olympian returns to the pool to attempt to do so again. She had a great swim in the 100 freestyle yesterday, that maybe was overlooked by Steenbergen’s performance, but Haughey could certainly be in range of taking over the top time in the world this year.
Between the 50 free and 200 free, there are plenty of events, that too are expected to be exciting. New Zealand’s Erika Fairweather, like Haughey is looking to rebreak her own Mare Nostrum Record from last weekend in the 400 free. So too is Hungary’s Kristof Milak in the 100 fly. The Hungarian will have his hands full as Ilya Kharun, posted the fastest and lone sub-52 time of the morning and is the top seed.
Home nation fans will have their eyes glued to the men’s 1500 as France’s David Aubry and Damien Joly are the top seeds by a wide margin, but Sweeden’s Victor Johansson looked very strong in the 400 free yesterday so could throw a wrench in their plans. Even more local is Canet 66’s own Pauline Mahieu, who is the 2nd seed in the 100 backstroke. The Frenchwomen will have to get around Canada’s Taylor Ruck. Ruck has one of the busiest schedules as not only is she the top seed in the 100 back, but she is the one to beat in the 100 fly, which is slated to go off just two events prior. The Canadian is also the 5th seed in the 50 free at the start of the session.
