Pirtea continues to take water at each water stop. She’s on 2:30 pace.
Adere is about 120 meters behind. Pirtea seems to have the race wrapped up. Just need to remember Adere’s amazing track speed.
Kate O’Neill is just over a minute behind Adere in 3rd.
With the heat and oppressive conditions, these conditions are probably comparable to what it’s going to be in Beijing - minus the intense pollution, of course.
