I am a TO fan. I remember watching last year and imploring him to “go” and take a chance instead of sitting in on the train. It looks like he went for it this year and had a great result. I am so happy for him.

Super surprised and impressed as well.

“You are experiencing the criminal coverup of a foreign backed fascist hostile takeover of a mafia shakedown of an authoritarian religious slow motion coup. Persuade people to vote for Democracy.”

the live stream showed TO approaching the 2nd place podium, then not being able to step up on the box without help from Messick. TO gave 100% like a champion; could not be happier for him.

I loved TO's comment during an interview about being surprised at the position he was in.... '~Ya, I realized between of 3 (AB JF) of us we had 3 gold medals and none of them were mine". That is always good company to be in and TO hails from the short course ITU career originally. Remarkable performance.

He will probably be known as Rinny's husband once we settle into calling Jan, Emma's husband!

Great race. He was solid on all counts. Super impressive. I am pumped for him.

Hanson has gone 7:39
Starky has gone 7:51.
Ben has gone in the 7:50s either once or twice.
TO has gone 7:55

In taking second TO may have given Jan his third Kona. Tim had to drive hard to keep up the gap, Jan had to do nothing until he did at scenic point. TO did a ton of work and pulled off a sub 2:50 run.

It was cool to see a naval Academy guy who did not come up through the elite sport system hang out on the queenk and drive the Olympic medalists. It was like watching a David Robinson or Roger Staubach show but this time in triathlon. Not sure if the boys in Annapolis got the message of what they can do from their launch pad at the naval academy.

Don't think TO "gave" Jan anything...

Pretty sure Jan took what he wanted.

Those of us who have or had couch potato and TV watching wives might be OK with a wife that could train with us.

Good on all of you who do.

Glad that TO had a great race. As of late, he's the top triathlete in their family.

Indoor Triathlete - I thought I was right, until I realized I was wrong.

There was also a decent amount of talk about how much biking he was doing to keep the pressure off his feet. I enjoy watching him. He's just sort of no nonsense and moves on.
