County Cable Montgomery recently visited with Bethesda native Katie Ledecky at the Palisades Pool in Cabin John, where the world’s best women’s distance swimmer started out as a six-year-old.

Ten years later, Ledecky is the world record holder in the 800- and 1500- meter freestyle and has an Olympic gold medal and four golds from this summer’s World Aquatics Championships in Spain.
