Michael Mann of Centennial, Colo., flew past his opponents, swaddled shoulder-to-ankle in a black neoprene bodysuit. Mr. Mann, 55, won the 400-meter individual medley race and set a world record for his age group, 55 to 59. Mr. Mann set new world marks in the 200-, 400- and 800-meter freestyle while Mr. Evans steamed.
One small point I would like to make as I have been corrected on this myself. There are no "ex-Olympians". Michael Phelps is an Olympian, as is Mark Spitz, Donna DeVerona and Clay Evans.
