West had the seventh best swim, the 10th best bike, and the fastest run on Friday to earn himself a podium spot with fellow Americans Sam Long (1st) and Ben Kanute (third). While it was his run that moved him from eighty place off the bike to second place at the finish line, he actually believes the gains made on the bike are what helped him achiev...
