"Morgan Pearson became the first American man to reach the podium in 31 years at the triathlon world championships when he won a silver medal Saturday at the World Triathlon Championship Finals in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
The 29-year-old Pearson, who just retuned to racing this month after recovering from an injury, turned in the fastest 10-kilometer run time of the day to finish second in 1 hour, 44 minutes, 25 seconds, just 11 seconds behind Leo Bergere of France (1:44:14), who won the finals and the overall series title. Jelle Geens of Belgium took the bronze medal in 1:44:34."
