In the 2014 ITU Triathlon season kick off, Gwen Jorgensen and Mario Mola ran their way to the top of the podium at the Mooloolaba World Cup under bright blue skies and blazing temperatures.  

 

 

Elite Women's Review

In a USA double, Gwen Jorgensen and Katie Hursey came out on top of a 34-strong field to finish first and second respectively in the opening women's ITU World Cup sprint race of the season on Queensland's Sunshine Coast this Saturday.

It was a particularly gritty performance from Jorgensen in a race that saw four of the world's top ten women compete after the late withdrawal of world ranked number three and 2013 Mooloolaba winner Anne Haug (GER) due to an infection.

 

Under sunny skies Jorgensen once again showed the foot speed that floored the competition in three World Triathlon Series races last year, taking the lead on the second lap of the run to win in 59:55. Hursey finished fifteen seconds in arrears while Japan pocket rocket Ai Ueda took third a further four seconds behind. For the full review, click here.
