The Speedo LZR RACER swimsuit also played a part in making history at the Olympics. American swimming sensation Phelps won a total of eight gold medals competing in the Speedo LZR RACER suit, helping him to overtake Mark Spitz’s 36-year old record for the number of gold medals won by an athlete in the games, which makes him the greatest Olympian of all time.
