TRIATHLON 2015 ยท STOCKHOLM 100 BACK TO BACK TRUE KEEPS CROWN AS FASTEST LADY IN STOCKHOLM Sarah True defended her position as the athlete to beat in Stockholm, as the American dominated the run leg to bring home a back-to-back title in the Swedish capital. "Stockholm is a beautiful city, a beautiful place to race. I came back here wanting to give last year justice and I am pleasantly surprised," said True. "There were some really strong women; I have to give them credit for pushing. Katie on the swim, she really went for it. Flora Duffy was so strong on the bike, Nicola Spirig put her head down, and obviously Andrea on the bike and the run - they kept it an honest race." USA controlled the podium once again, as the silver medal went to compatriot Katie Zaferes, who earned her sixth WTS podium of the year. The bronze was awarded to Kiwi Andrea Hewitt who pleasantly found herself up on the podium for the first time since her third-place finish in Auckland earlier in the year.
