Just checked - she's 1.80/5.11. Tall!
On a course like this I think smaller athletes who are lighter have a physiological advantage but let's see and not jump the gun about Judd.
Battocletti looks excellent.
McCormack of Ireland who ran 223 in the Valencia marathon last week is showing very good powers of recovery and she's in the second group and trying to claw back the first group.
Herbier, the Belgian princess is a featherweight and looks great in the mud.
Grovdal leads from Donnelly (GB) and Lahti.
Judd's biomechanics and body weight are not kind to her in these muddy conditions. Significant energy cost compared to the much lighter and shorter rivals. Everything is correlated.
Grovdal and Donnelly pulling clear of Batocletti.
Now Grovdal pulling clear on her own. Judd good in 4th so far.
Looks like Grovdal has this one
Race is very strung out, at least top 5 each on their own already.
Fascinating that the two Belgian athletes have totally different builds with one being tall and heavy and the other tiny and light and yet they are running stride for. Rooms and Herbiet.
McCormack is up to 5th, Lahti must have either blown up or dropped out.
Rooms, 4:14/8:54/15:26/32:24 (km), 33:20 (track)
Grovdal leads by 31s at 6810m.
Fionnula has overtaken Jess Judd!
and Battocletti has repassed Donnelly!
