Steady Effort Across All Three Disciplines Highlights a Solid Olympic Finish Kyler Bean completed the Olympic distance in 3:54:45, showing consistent effort across the swim, bike, and run legs. The bike leg stood out as a strength, covering roughly 24.4 miles in 1:44:02 for an average pace of about 14 mph, with a strong mid-race stretch that pushed his overall position up by nearly 300 spots by the end of the bike course. The swim and run legs were more modest, with the run split just over 6 miles in 1:31:27 showing room to build endurance and pacing consistency in future races, especially in the later miles where his pace slowed. Transitions were efficient, with T1 and T2 combined taking under 8.5 minutes, reflecting good preparation between legs. Overall, this race shows a strong foundation on the bike that could be paired with run-specific training to boost overall results moving forward.
