True’s victory was her second straight at Stockholm and comes after her crucial 4th place finish at the Olympic test event in Rio, earning her second straight Olympic starting slot.
True picked up her first WTS victory of the year with a time of 2:01:05 and defended her 2014 WTS Stockholm title.
“Stockholm is a beautiful city, a beautiful place to race,” said True. “I came back here wanting to give last year justice and I am pleasantly surprised.”
True ran a perfectly balanced race, emerging from the swim 2nd just 4 seconds behind fellow U.S. star Katie Zaferes, finished the bike leg 9th, just 2 seconds behind Flora Duffy, and capped off her day with a race-best 33:14 run. That run broke her out of a duel with Andrea Hewitt and was 9 seconds faster than Zaferes’ second-best 10k run.
