By Stephen Meyers, TeamUSA.org: May 14 in Yokohama, Japan. It’s past midnight on the east coast in the U.S. and Morgan Pearson, the former University of Colorado All-American runner who became a pro triathlete only three years ago, has just passed 26 runners on the first lap of the run at the World Triathlon Championship Series Yokohama to move into ninth place.
With a blistering 29 minute, 30 second 10k — that’s a 4:45 per mile pace — Pearson earned bronze, qualified for his first Olympic Games and loudly announced to his World Triathlon Championship Series competitors he’s a new force to be reckoned with.
