I caught that as well.........Interesting "profession" for an AG'er. Even if he is still training full time and racing AG'er I still would never call myself a "pro". Maybe he is turning pro soon? I did read somewhere that he turned down a Kona slot last year though.......

go WX!!!!!

to make this day complete, he must stiff-arm the guy he passes for 2nd ala that one chick who got beaned, and then a gorilla needs to be involved somehow.

if he pulls this off, @TheRealStarky needs to commemorate him with the shirt because he will be a #champion

@TheRealStarky would give him a #1stloser t-shirt if he finishes 2nd.

Missing out on a perfect day (assuming you're actually in the 206), but I can't really blame you.

I think the guy he's chasing already KQ'd at Arizona last fall. That might mean he's already got it!

That's incredible. Talk about making a plan and executing it. Good on him, I hope he gets it!

Long Chile was a silly place.

Just noticed that his run split beat the AG winner.

And the guy in third won the spot with his swim, you don't see that everyday. And wow, the guaranteed Kona slots for his AG where 20+ min. ahead.

Man, the swim and transitions killed him. The amount of time he got back on the field in the run is wild. 12 minutes on third place and 8 on 2nd.

Actually the guy in 3rd won with his transitions... Approx 3min in T1/T2, where as WX was approx 5min and 3min in T1/T2 respectively. Still totally awesome day and I really hope Xiao gets a slot. This thread has been amazing.
