SINGAPORE - Following freediver Lim Anqi's exertions at the World Championships and Caribbean Cup in August, where she set seven national records, she took a break to travel around Mexico before she was scheduled to return to Singapore.

Despite not being in top shape, the 37-year-old was the overall winner of the Azul Freediving Challenge in Bacalar, Mexico, last week, where she set Aida national records in the constant weight bi-fins and free immersion disciplines. Lim won the constant weight bi-fins discipline with her dive of 70m, breaking her previous record by 10m.Surprised by the result, Lim said:"I didn't feel like I was in shape and it was difficult to have a good fitness routine, so I didn't expect myself to be in this shape and do something."

Earlier, she had set three CMAS national records at the 2019 World Freediving Championships, and three Aida International national marks at the Caribbean Cup, both held in the Honduras.
