Strong Bike Leg Anchors a Solid Olympic-Distance Finish Antonio Rodriguez completed the 2026 Spudman Olympic Triathlon in 3:01:08, finishing 518th overall out of 1,987 participants and 427th in the mens field. His bike split was a clear highlight, averaging roughly 19.3 mph and moving him up into the 344th overall position by the end of the ride a notable climb from his post-swim standing near 1,139th. Transitions were efficient bookends to a well-paced day, with T1 in 8:12 and T2 in 7:28. Compared to his 2025 Spudman finish of 2:51:02, this years time was about ten minutes slower, with the swim and run segments accounting for most of the difference. The swim placed him mid-pack, while the run held steady pacing through the final miles, closing strong with a 5:42 pace over the last stretch. Overall, a solid showing built around a standout bike performance.
