ITU World Championship Series Triathlon Update

The second stop on the ITU WCS Triathlon comes to Madrid this weekend. I arrived today from San Diego as part of the USA Triathlon medical and support staff. This is my second visit to Madrid with the US team and this is one of my favorite cities on the WCS triathlon series.

We have a smaller number of US triathletes racing this weekend; just 3 men (Greg Bennett, Jarrod Shoemaker and Manny Huerta) and 4 women; Laura Bennett, Sarah Groff, Jillian Peterson and first-time WCS triathlete, Gwen Jorgensen, and a smaller support team. Looking forward to the men’s race on Saturday and the women’s race on Sunday.

We spent today getting the clinic room ready and have already started treating some of the triathletes.
