A Mid-Season Distance Workout with Grant Hackett

The Australians have a long and rich history in the distance freestyle events.

Since the world record for the 1500m freestyle has been kept since 1908 six Australians have broken it a combined 13 times. Kieren Perkins assumed the distance mantle during the 1990’s, demolishing the world record three times, the final time swimming a 14:41.66 at the 1994 Commonwealth Games in my home pool here in Victoria, British Columbia.

Seven years later Grant Hackett would come along and drop over 7 seconds off that mark, swimming a 14:34.56 in 2001 at the FINA World Championships in Japan.

The year before I had the privilege of training with Grant for a few sessions in Vancouver, and it left me equally awed and disheartened. To see someone swim repeats of 200 meters of freestyle at a pace of 1:50-1:51 was a bit crushing, I won’t lie.

Anyways, the following workout was crafted by his long-time coach Denis Cotterell as a mid-season set. (As an interesting aside, Cotterell would also go on to train the man who would ultimately break Hackett’s world mark—China’s Sun Yang.)

The swim workout is a long one, running around two hours, and a sum of 7,400 meters, all done long course.

Have fun!

We like the pattern, so we think creatively and change this freestyle set to an IM set! Typical “Grant Hackett” set, for reference, is: 16×50 (45) every 4th fast; 12×50 (50) every 3rd fast; 8×50 (55) every other fast; 4×50 (1) all fast

Additional Comments:

Athletes should swim the Stroke 100s like they would in an IM. Here’s how we do it:

– Fly: Relax the first 50, work the 2nd 50

– Back: Sprint the turns and increase hand speed through the hip

– Breast: 2nd 50 should be outstanding, work the pullouts but keep it quick; keep the hands moving through the stroke.

– Free: keep the hands moving (don’t let them stop), and race!

Grant HACKETT Biography, Olympic Medals, Records and Age

Biography

Grant Hackett succeeded his countryman, Kieren Perkins, as the top distance swimmer in the world, and his overall record rivals that of Perkins and Vladimir Salnikov as the greatest distance freestyler ever. Hackett has been undefeated at his best distance, 1,500 metres, between 1997 and 2006, winning the Olympic gold medal in that event in both 2000 and 2004. His hopes for a third consecutive gold in the event were dashed by Oussama Mellouli. His record at major meets is remarkable, winning the 1,500 at the Commonwealth Games in 1997 and 2002, the 1,500 at the World Championships in 1998, 2001, 2003 and 2005. His streak ended in 2007, when he placed just 7th in the final in front of his home crowd in Melbourne. At the Pan-Pacific Meet, Hackett won the 400, 800, and 1,500 in 1997, the 1,500 in 1999, and the 800 and 1,500 in 2002. He has also frequently won medals at international meets on the 4 x 200 metre freestyle relay team for Australia. Hackett has set one world record at 1,500 metres, 14:34.56 in winning the 2001 World Championship in Fukuoka, Japan. That same year, he also set the World Record on the 1500 m short course, 14:10.10. Both records still stood when Hackett announced his retirement in late 2008.

Grant Hackett

Australian swimmer

Grant George Hackett OAM (born 9 May 1980) is an Australian swimmer, most famous for winning the men’s 1500 metres freestyle race at both the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney and the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. This achievement has led him to be regarded as one of the greatest distance swimmers in history. He also collected a gold medal in Sydney for swimming in the heats of the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay. He was well regarded for his versatility, and has held the long course world records in the 200 m, 800 m, and 1500 m freestyle events. He dominated the 1500 m event for a decade, being undefeated in the event in finals from 1996 until the 2007 World Aquatics Championships. In total, he has won 10 long-course world championship gold medals.

Hackett was the captain of the Australian swimming team from the time the role was reintroduced in 2005 until his retirement in 2008.

Hackett worked for the Nine Network, often hosting Wide World of Sports. Hackett’s contract as a Westpac Banking Corporation ambassador was not renewed in February 2012 after 13 years in the role, but he remains an employee of the organisation. He is currently the Chief Executive Officer of Generation Life.[1]

Early life [ edit ]

Hackett was born at Southport on the Gold Coast of Queensland. He is the son of a policeman and younger brother of a Surf Lifesaving champion. Hackett’s mother, Margaret, had his brother Craig six years before he was born, as she was diagnosed with cancer between the two boys’births, and was told due to the cancer she was unlikely to ever have more children,however she later fell pregnant with Grant. He attended Merrimac State High School.

Swimming career [ edit ]

Hackett first achieved prominence on debut at the 1997 Pan Pacific Championships, where he first won the 1500 meters. He also won the 400 m freestyle, recording his only international victory over the yet-to-be-famous Ian Thorpe at the distance in international long course competition.

1998 World Championships [ edit ]

During the 1998 World Championships, he again won the 1500 m but was narrowly upset by Thorpe in the 400 m. He also combined with Thorpe, Michael Klim and Daniel Kowalski to win the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay, beginning a six-year winning streak in the event over the United States.

Event Results Time Men’s 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:46.44 Men’s 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:51.70 Men’s 4 × 200 m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:12.48

These results were replicated at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur. From 1997 to 2007 he was unbeaten in the 1500 m, winning it at every major world competition, including the World Championships, Pan Pacific Championships, Olympics, Commonwealth and Australian Championships.

In 1999, Hackett broke his first world record, unexpectedly breaking Giorgio Lamberti’s 200 m freestyle world record while leading off his club relay team at the Australian Championships. That record was subsequently broken by Ian Thorpe in the same year at the 1999 Pan Pacific Championships in Sydney, although Hackett himself bettered his old mark. Hackett himself claimed the 1500 m freestyle, and combined with Thorpe, Klim and Bill Kirby to break the world record in the 4 × 200 m freestyle.

2000 Summer Olympics [ edit ]

Olympic medal record Representing Australia 2000 Sydney – Men’s Swimming 4 × 200 m freestyle relay 7 min 07.05 s (WR) 1500 m freestyle 14 min 48.33 s

Entering the Sydney Olympics in 2000, Hackett was the overwhelming favourite in the 1500 m freestyle, and was also expected to help Thorpe take a quinella in the 200 m and 400 m events. However, due to a virus, he was well short of his best and finished eighth and seventh, respectively, in these events. He followed this with an extremely slow swim in the heats of the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay, and was dropped from the final quartet, being replaced by Todd Pearson. By the time the final of the 1500 m freestyle came, Hackett had qualified third behind sentimental favourite Kieren Perkins, who was being vocally cheered by the crowd. In the face of the immense pressure, Hackett adopted a more attacking, fast-starting approach, and managed to hang on to claim gold.

2001 World Championships [ edit ]

At the 2001 World Championships in Fukuoka, Hackett was in the peak of his speed. He set personal bests in the 200 m, 400 m 800 m and 1500 m freestyle events, finishing second to Thorpe in both 400 m and 800m, and bettering the 800 m world record in the latter. Along with Thorpe, Klim and Kirby, they bettered the previous world record in the 4 × 200 m freestyle. In the 1500 m, Hackett attacked immediately, and stayed well ahead of Perkins’ world record, and with the crowd standing and willing him on, he broke the record by 7 seconds, to claim gold.

Event Results Time Men’s 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:42.51 Men’s 800m Freestyle Silver Medal 7:40.34 Men’s 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:34.56 WR Men’s 4 × 200 m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:04.66 WR

2003 World Championships [ edit ]

In the 2003 World Championships in Barcelona, Hackett picked up five medals; three gold, a silver and a bronze. Despite capturing individual medals in 200, 400, 800 and 1500 freestyle events for the first time in an international meet, Hackett failed to break any personal best times.

Event Results Time Men’s 200m Freestyle Bronze Medal 1:46.85 Men’s 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:45.17 Men’s 800m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:43.82 Men’s 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:43.14 Men’s 4 × 200 m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:08.58

2004 Summer Olympics [ edit ]

Olympic medal record Representing Australia 2004 Athens – Men’s Swimming 400 m freestyle 3 min 43.36 s 4 × 200 m freestyle relay 7 min 07.46 s 1500 m freestyle 14 min 43.40 s

At 196 cm (six foot five) and 89.8 kg (198 pounds), Hackett won the gruelling 1500 meters race by sheer physical strength and stamina. He showed this in Sydney when he won despite having only partly recovered from illness, and again in Athens, when he survived challenges from swimmers (Larsen Jensen and David Davies) both six years his junior to hang on to win the race, despite a partially collapsed lung. This came after a solid swim in the 400 m to claim silver behind Thorpe, and a lackluster performance in the individual 200 m, followed by an unconvincing swim in the lead-off leg of the 4 × 200 m relay, when he was 1.66 seconds off his best. His sluggish heat swim placed him third, raising concerns within the Australian camp. After the Olympics, it was revealed that one of his lungs was partially collapsed, leaving his total lung capacity diminished by 25%.[citation needed]

2005 World Championships [ edit ]

In 2005, Swimming Australia introduced the concept of a captain for the swimming team. Hackett was awarded this honour, and led Australia in the World Championships at Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He won gold medals in the 400 m, 800 m and 1500 m freestyle (as well as silver in the 200 m freestyle), the first person ever to achieve this feat, along with the only swimmer to medal in four distances in a single world championships. His victory in the 800 m event broke Thorpe’s world record, and his 1500 m victory saw him become the first to win an event four times at a World Championships. He anchored the 4 × 200 m team to bronze with a split of 1:44.84, making him the second fastest performer in relay splits. He was named as FINA’s Male swimmer of the meet.

Event Results Time Men’s 200m Freestyle Silver Medal 1:46.14 Men’s 400m Freestyle Gold Medal 3:42.91 Men’s 800m Freestyle Gold Medal 7:38.65 WR Men’s 1500m Freestyle Gold Medal 14:42.58 Men’s 4 × 200 m Freestyle Bronze Medal 7:10.59

In November 2005, Hackett announced his withdrawal from the 2006 Commonwealth Games due to being unavailable for the selection trials because of a minor surgery to correct a shoulder injury. However, he was given dispensation to act as a non-competing captain in order to mentor the fellow swimmers in the lead-up to the competition.

In late 2006, Hackett relocated to Melbourne due to personal reasons. He attributed his disrupted preparation to adjusting with his new regime. Prior to the 2007 World Aquatics Championships, he presented a pessimistic outlook of his prospects.

2007 World Championships [ edit ]

He qualified last in the 400 m event, but led in the final before fading in the last lap to take the bronze medal. He qualified fifth in the 800 m event, but finished seventh, more than ten seconds behind the winner. In the 1500 m final Hackett came seventh, ending his decade long unbeaten streak in the event.

Event Results Time Men’s 400m Freestyle Silver Medal 3:45.43 Men’s 800m Freestyle 6th 7:55.39 Men’s 1500m Freestyle 7th 14:59.59

In December 2007, Hackett competed in and won his first National Championship 10 km Open Water race. By barely edging out veteran open-water swimmer and surf Ironman Ky Hurst, the pair both qualified for the World Championships in Seville, Spain. However, Hackett failed to finish in the top 10 in this event, and therefore missed out on qualifying for the 10 km open water swim at the 2008 Summer Olympics.[2] He was also criticised for appearing to be overweight after the event, a claim that he rejected as “ridiculous”.[3]

At the 2008 Victorian Short Course Swimming Championships, his final Australian meet before departing for the Olympics, Hackett broke his own 800 metres freestyle world record – lowering the mark by almost two seconds to 7:23.42.[4]

2008 Olympics [ edit ]

Though Hackett failed to qualify for the 10,000m; he succeeded in other events. He swam the 400m and 1500m freestyle and the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay. In the 1500m he finished second, winning the silver medal behind Tunisian Oussama Mellouli. Had he won, he would have been the first male swimmer to win three successive Olympic titles in the same event, an opportunity denied to two-time Olympic 1500m champion Vladimir Salnikov due to the 1984 Summer Olympics communist boycott. Hackett won the individual 200m freestyle swim at the Olympic trials but as he was not seeking a berth in the event he handed his spot in the Olympic competition in this event to the third-place finisher at the trials, Nicholas Sprenger.

Event Results Time Men’s 400m Freestyle 6th 3:43.84 Men’s 1500m Freestyle Silver Medal 14:41.53 Men’s 4 × 200 m Freestyle Bronze Medal 7:04.98

2015 World Championships Comeback [ edit ]

After six and half years since racing a major competition and after six months of training under his belt. At the Australian Championships, Hackett finished fourth in the 200m freestyle, qualifying for the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay for the 2015 World Aquatics Championships. He also won a bronze medal in the 400m freestyle. At the 2015 World Championships in Kazan, he won a bronze medal for swimming in the heats of the 4 × 200 m freestyle relay, thereby winning his first international medal since the 2008 Olympics.

Career best times [ edit ]

Hackett has set quite a number of world records both short course and long course. His world records in the 1500 meter (long course and short course) and 800 meter short course were the only male world records that survived the 2008/2009 release of the high tech Polyurethane suits.

Media career [ edit ]

Hackett in May 2017

Hackett is currently contracted to the Nine Network, having previously worked with the Seven Network.

In October 2008, Hackett joined Nine News Melbourne as the weekend sport presenter, replacing Heath O’Loughlin. However, in November 2009, Nine announced that Hackett would no longer continue as weekend sports presenter, but would continue with the network in other capacities.

Hackett was an expert commentator for Amazon Prime Video for the 2021 Swimming Australia Olympic Trials and the 2022 Australian Swimming Championships.

Personal life [ edit ]

Hackett holds a double degree in commerce and law, and an executive MBA from Bond University.[6][7] He also has a diploma of financial services.[8]

On 14 April 2007, Hackett married Australian singer Candice Alley. In March 2009, Hackett announced that his wife was expecting twins and in September she gave birth to a son named Jagger Emilio and a girl named Charlize Alley.[9]

In December 2020, Hackett married his partner Sharlene Fletcher, where they have a son Edward together. He is an advocate for Mental Health.[10]

Controversies [ edit ]

On 29 October 2011, police were called to attend a dispute at Hackett and Alley’s Melbourne apartment, which was reportedly found in disarray.[11] On 3 May 2012, Alley and Hackett announced that they were separating. They divorced in August 2013.[12]

Hackett was questioned by police for an alleged assault during a flight from Adelaide to Melbourne on 17 April 2016.[13][14] Police sources say that he “went to the toilet for an extended period, taking a bag with him. He emerged aggressive and agitated, taking offence to a male business class passenger who reclined his seat”.[13] He reportedly abused and grabbed the passenger on the chest before crew restrained him and contacted Federal Police.[13] The victim alleged he was sexually assaulted,[13] accusing Hackett of groping him.[14][15] The man alleged that Hackett “tweaked my nipple quite forcefully.”[14][15] Hackett said he had no recollection of touching the man’s nipple, and said that the incident followed a period of heavy drinking.[16] Hackett said he “stuffed up” and was embarrassed by his actions.[13][14] The victim chose not to press charges after receiving a personal apology.[14]

On 15 February 2017 Hackett was arrested following a disturbance at his parents’ house on Queensland’s Gold Coast. Hackett had previously admitted a reliance on sleeping pills and had been battling mental health issues.[17] Later that same day, his parents reported him missing from home, but before he was reported missing, Hackett posted a photo of himself on Instagram with cuts and bruises to his face and said his brother had beaten him. Hackett was subsequently found safe.[18]

Honours [ edit ]

Hackett received an Australian Sports Medal in 2000, and both a Centenary Medal and a Medal of the Order of Australia in 2001, the latter for his 2000 gold medal win.[19][20][21]

Awards [ edit ]

In 2004 he was granted the “Key to the City of Gold Coast” in recognition of his outstanding achievement as a swimming champion.[22] He was named as the Australian Swimmer of the Year in 2005, and was also named the World Swimmer of the Year by Swimming World magazine. In 2009 as part of the Q150 celebrations, Grant Hackett was announced as one of the Q150 Icons of Queensland for his role as a “sports legend”.[23] In 2010 he was inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame,[24] and the International Swimming Hall of Fame in 2014.[25]

Biography

Grant Hackett, born on Queensland’s Gold Coast, is one of Australia’s greatest freestyle swimmers. He won gold in the 1500 metres freestyle at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and the 2004 Athens Olympics, and set world records in the 1500m and 800m freestyle. He has not been beaten in the 1500m freestyle since 1997.

Hackett is 196 cm tall, and weighs 90 kg. He wins his races with a combination of strength, stamina and determination, in the face of obstacles such as injuries and ill health. At the Sydney Olympics, despite having a virus, Hackett swam in the 200m and the 400m, and went on to win the 1500m against the crowd favourite and champion, Kieren Perkins. Incredibly, at the Athens Olympics, he won gold in the 1500m, even though he had a partially collapsed lung.

Hackett has had most success at distance events, but also swims shorter distances. Many of his races have been against his friend and fellow swimming legend, Ian Thorpe. At the 2001 World Championships, Hackett swam his personal best times in the 400m and 800 m freestyle, but Thorpe won both events. At 2003 World Championships, Hackett won the 1500m and 4 x 200m relay, but again could not beat Thorpe in the 400m.

In 2005, Swimming Australia decided for the first time to appoint a swimming team captain. Hackett was appointed captain and in that role lead Australia to great success at the World Championships in Montreal. Hackett was not only an inspiring captain, but won gold medals in the 400m, 800m and 1500m freestyle, the first person to do this at a World Championship. Hackett could not swim at the 2006 Commonwealth Games, as he had to undergo shoulder surgery, but Swimming Australia decided to make him a non-swimming captain, because of his ability to inspire the team.

Hackett was once asked what his three wishes would be, he replied “to have a healthy happy family, world peace and a packet of Tim Tams that never runs out!”

He dominated the 1500 m event for a decade, being undefeated in the event in finals from 1996 until the 2007 World Aquatics Championships. In total, he has won 10 long-course world championship gold medals.

Hackett was the captain of the Australian swimming team from the time the role was reintroduced in 2005 until his retirement in 2008.

Hackett worked for the Nine Network, often hosting Wide World of Sports. Hackett’s contract as a Westpac Banking Corporation ambassador was not renewed in February 2012 after 13 years in the role, but he remains an employee of the organisation.

Hackett holds a double degree in commerce and law, and an executive MBA from Bond University. He also has a diploma of financial services.

On 14 April 2007, Hackett married Australian singer Candice Alley. In March 2009, Hackett announced that his wife was expecting twins and in September she gave birth to a son named Jagger Emilio and a girl named Charlize Alley.

On 29 October 2011, police were called to attend a dispute at Hackett and Alley’s Melbourne apartment, which was reportedly found in disarray. On 3 May 2012, Alley and Hackett announced that they were separating. They divorced in August 2013.

Hackett was questioned by police for an alleged assault during a flight from Adelaide to Melbourne on 17 April 2016. Police sources say that he “went to the toilet for an extended period, taking a bag with him. He emerged aggressive and agitated, taking offence to a male business class passenger who reclined his seat”.

He reportedly abused and grabbed the passenger on the chest before crew restrained him and contacted Federal Police. The victim alleged he was sexually assaulted, accusing Hackett of groping him. The man alleged that Hackett “tweaked my nipple quite forcefully.”

Hackett said he had no recollection of touching the man’s nipple, and said that the incident followed a period of heavy drinking. Hackett said he “stuffed up” and was embarrassed by his actions. The victim chose not to press charges after receiving a personal apology.

On 15 February 2017 Hackett was arrested following a disturbance at his parents’ house on Queensland’s Gold Coast. Hackett had previously admitted a reliance on sleeping pills and had been battling mental health issues.

Later that same day, his parents reported him missing from home, but before he was reported missing, Hackett posted a photo of himself on Instagram with cuts and bruises to his face and said his brother had beaten him. Hackett was subsequently found safe.

In December 2020, Hackett married his partner Sharlene Fletcher, where they have a son Edward together. He is an advocate for Mental Health.

Hackett received an Australian Sports Medal in 2000, and both a Centenary Medal and a Medal of the Order of Australia in 2001, the latter for his 2000 gold medal win.

In 2004 he was granted the “Key to the City of Gold Coast” in recognition of his outstanding achievement as a swimming champion. He was named as the Australian Swimmer of the Year in 2005, and was also named the Swimmer of the Year by the Swimming World magazine.

In 2009 as part of the Q150 celebrations, Grant Hackett was announced as one of the Q150 Icons of Queensland for his role as a “sports legend”.

In 2010 he was inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame, and the International Swimming Hall of Fame in 2014.
