Eva Donde (born October 17, 1989) is a Kenyan swimmer, who specialized in sprint freestyle events.[1] She held Kenyan records in long and short course 50 m freestyle, until they were both broken by Achieng Ajulu-Bushell in 2009.[2] Donde is also a member of Otter Club, and is trained by her longtime coach Whitney Pragassa.[3]
Donde qualified for the women's 50 m freestyle, as a 14-year-old, at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by receiving a Universality place from FINA, in an entry time of 29.83.[4] She challenged seven other swimmers in heat three, including 13-year-old Tojohanitra Andriamanjatoarimanana of Madagascar. She posted a lifetime best of 29.47 to take a third seed by 0.14 of a second behind winner Ermelinda Zamba of Mozambique. Donde failed to advance into the semifinals, as she placed fifty-seventh overall out of 75 swimmers on the last day of preliminaries.[5] [6]
