Is it the first time this happens? Didn't read the corresponding article yet, just browsed through it, but didn't see a mention of GJ or triathlon.

Yes, it references their success due to strong women swimming and track programs.

That "other triathlete" is Sarah Groff True, better known as "Groffy", who is the #2 ranked female ITU athlete behind Gwen. Anyway, ya, good article.

I guess she got married in the last year? Didn't recognize the name True, nor do I follow American Olympic hopefuls closely, and sadly, this year the Canadian TV channel that carried ITU last year (probably due to Edmonton) did not carry it this year.

But yes, interesting article.

Ya, i think she got married sometime in last 12-18 months or so. Have you thought about buying the annual subscription to the ITU TV channel??? I bought it last spring and it was only about 22 USD, for which you can watch all the main ITU circuit races, plus highlights from the smaller races. I haven't even watched but maybe 10% of the available footage, and i'm a pretty frugal guy, but even i thought it was money well spent:)
