Jorgensen 4th at Madrid #1 in World

 
Schroeder's favorite globetrotting triathlete, Gwen has taken 4 starts in the ITU World Triathlon Series.  Her first outing was a DNF in Auckland, NZ as she was a little sick coming into the race.  She won back to back races in San Diego and then Yokohama, Japan.  This past weekend she came fourth in Madrid, ESP which has her still first in overall series points and the  number one female in the World.  Nice!  below are some pics and stroies that lead to her top spot from Triathlete
