Regan Smith opened up about her preparatory stages before the 2024 World Aquatics World Cup where she clinched a total of nine gold medals across the three stops.

Smith revealed that she didn't practice till the last week of August as she was on a break after the Paris Olympics. She also mentioned after coming back to the pool, she swam 2500m four times a week, which helped her gain momentum. She said (via Unfiltered Waters podcast, 22:55 onwards):

"It was great, it really was. After the Games I didn't do any exercises whatsoever, I'd say like till the last week of August. So that was solid three weeks off and then even the last week of August I was doing captain's practice with ASU, so we swam four-times that week and it was 2500m each day so we got our feel back."
