[new KOM on the wildflower bike course, and 6-straight winner of that tri]
It took me 1h3m longer on the same course
my favorite part? he avg'd 147 HR over the thing [likely a Z3 effort for him, aka cruising], and strava estimates 336w avg power [but it must be higher as the winds were pretty intense, 20-30 and headwind for the first 15]
DM: What was it like having your best friend Matt Lieto finish second last year? Was that bro hug the bro-est of bro hugs ever? I bet it felt great.
JT: It was amazing. We both cried. The only thing that would have made it feel better was if you finished in 3rd.
DM: I had talked for many months about coming in and dethroning you. As an athlete with a 5k PR of 20:07(3x), I was obviously a major threat to your crown. Describe to me your feelings when you found out I had to withdraw from this race, as I had talked so much shit in the months prior.
JT: 100% relief. I would have looked like a total fraud if I had been beaten by a man who is so publicly anti gluten free.
