Tyler trailed eventual winner Tim Don of the UK and 2nd place Tim ODonnell of the USA by a minute after the swim but rode well to be in contention going into the run. Don, however, is known for his strong run and pulled away to finish in 3 hrs 41 mins 47 secs with O’Donnell 2nd in 3 : 42 : 40 with Tyler crossing the line in 3 : 45 : 48.
