From IM Live - There's a woman who is in the main pack - we're trying to get her number now. My guess is that it will be one of Julie Dibens, Leanda Cave or Rachel Joyce. Leanda Cave has been swimming really well of late.
4 starts, 4 World Championship crowns! What an athlete, what a fighter Chrissie is! It was much tighter than usual but still almost 3 mins ahead of Carfrae. Well done to her, and 3rd placed Leanda Cave.
When I went to bed I didn't think Chrissie could do it as the gaps were so big. So pleased for her after the disappointment of last year. What a woman! Did you see the ohotos of the road rash on her blog - ouch, nasty and she still dug deep and won.
