I've been trying to get more information on the swimmer. I haven't found anything out yet. I feel very badly for his family. He was in the 40's age group, was about 30 lbs on the heavy side and was swimming the leg for a relay team. Ugh! His team members must be beside themselves.
Just to clarify, I don't know that he died. I'm just suspicious that is the case.
ETA: I just found this link. The man did die and he's not the first to die at this event apparently.
