Lizzie Bellinger claimed three medals and broke two records that had stood for seven years at the Swim Wales Masters Long Course Championships.
The Bishop's Stortford Swimming Club member competed in the 45-49 age category for the first time at the Wales National Pool in Swansea.
Bellinger took gold in the 200m individual medley (2min 42.50sec) and 50m fly (31.01sec) and silver in the 100m freestyle (1.05.20).
And the Herts and Essex High School PE teacher's performances in the IM and free earned her East region records that had not been bettered since 2016.
She was forced to withdraw from the 100m fly due to illness, but it was still a fine start to the season.
