She just passed the 2K in 6:11 . . . on pace to smash the 16:00 barrier.

Bethany Graham, Carmen Alder, Jenna Hutchins, and Alyssa Hendrix were in a pack about 25 seconds behind her.
16:22 for 1st in the end, 42 seconds ahead of Jenna Hutchins.
First part of the course is pretty fast in general but still crazy
Another thing to note is that the girl in second, Jenna Hutchins in 17:04(42 seconds back), just recently ran a 16:38 5k at Desert Twilight and was top 10 at Footlocker Nationals last year.
I still think with a bit more even pacing Tuohy could have ran faster, but that's an amazing effort for her first big race of the season.

Agree, in interviews she has made it clear they are trying to peak later this season. 4:52 was probably a little fast even on that course.
