She exited T2 (in the chase group) in 21st place. One mile into the run, she's now 11th. 15 seconds from the lead.
After 3k, Tomlin is now 5th. 5 seconds off the lead...

Pretty much check mate with this post. I would say apologies are in order now but the other poster has embarrassed themselves a lot already via self punishment. Thanks for setting this straight. Yes, that would be a clear example of when it works. I wonder where Davison is riding now?
Woman in the lead at 3k, is American Donner, who is 5th ranked American. Tomlin is making her look like an amateur...

...not really. Donner still wins by 1 second over Tomlin, who comes in second...
Still, that's quite impressive...
Tomlin should move up to somewhere between 70th and 75th in world ranking after this race.
...and Tomlin beat Frintova who is ranked 11th in the world. Another US woman triathlon star is emerging... Read it here first folks...
That being said, Tomlin is probably a better 5k runner than 10k runner.
Who is the domestique going to ride for? Gwen or Renee? Too many strong US women. They have 3 or even 4 that will be strong enough to medal (given Tomlin's incredible progression, I'm putting her name as a potential medalist)...
Tomlin and Webb's progression are amazing. Both jumped huge in rank after last weekend like 30 plus spots! And like Webb, Tomlin looks to have less that a year as a triathlete! Donner (Shiver before) has been in tris since 2012 according to ITU.
Webb 44th out of T1...
Ahead of Richard Murray????
Ahead of Sissons too. Live coverage is here:
Alan is out, or his last split was not taken on the Bike??? its possible his chip came off but I am thinking he is out with a mechanical, flat, crash. bummer
Hope that it's a chip thing. They were pretty fast in saying that athletes dropped out on the twitter feed during the women's race. Nothing on Webb...
no second split 10k on the bike either for Webb?! weak! such a good swim for him too..
44th out of 75. Not off the back in last place!! and ahead of many higher rank, WTS regulars: Yuichi Hosada, Ryan Sissons, Andrew yorke, Courtney Atkinson.
was setting up for him to tee off on that 5k. murray has a 10 second stand down penalty to serve to.
Absent at 10k also...
There seems to be some chips problem. There were 66 athletes at the 5k and now 70 at the 10k. Let's hope that Webb is still there.
Maloy wasn't in the 10K split but is in the 15K split so it's very possible that they are having chip issues and Webb still is in the race.
WTF! they updated "hopeful" sissons withdrawl but no Webb info?? Sissons was behind webb out of the water and about to get smoked by Webb on the run. but hometown boy sissons. go figure.
huerta flatted or crashed. way back now. Traitor! haha
It's pretty telling that there's an active thread on letsrun following this 2nd tier triathlon in New Zealand but there is nothing going on at slowtwitch. Webb definitely draws in people to the sport.
Huerta now 23rd. Random chip times..
