She let the others pass from the start of the run, so is probably not feeling great.

i dont like how they are overlapping the mens race. its doing a big disservice to the womens race. poor move.

Are we missing a second stream to follow the women? This is annoying, it's nice to save downtime with starting the men's swim already, but at least split the screen.

Lead men all back together again.

100% agree. When they left it was a 1:40 deficit and now I'm seeing FB messages of close to 37. It's dumb to overlap this in the first place but to not split screen it is even worse.

Since the men's race started 11 minutes ago they've shown about 5 seconds of the women's race, in a tiny little window.

Paula is sinking like a stone. Now passed by Jackie Hering. 2 minutes behind LCB & Stimpson, who are 34 secs behind the leader. If I said something about Paula Findley being certain to post a solid run, I have to suspend this opinion.

It's a glorified radio broadcast for the women's final minutes. Too bad this isn't on international women's day to really rub it in.

Immediate edit to mention this is sarcasm. You never know.

All they had to do was give it an extra hour between races. You don't necessarily have to wait for everyone to finish. Just give time for the top 5 or so. They're going to get roasted for this, and rightfully so.

And now a pass coming in on the small screen if they don't cut away.

Stimpson in the lead! She looks like Paula looked on the run in Daytona.

They finally managed to find the big screen button for the women's race!!

Jeez, Jodie Stimpson is trucking. Kinda reminds me of Matt Hanson in Daytona, actually. She's just in a different gear from any of the other leaders.

Only to cut back to a replay of the men's swim start. For people with extremely short memories because that swim is still ongoing. Why do these sports broadcasts always do that type of race summary during a race? Never seen it in (superior coverage) bike races until after the finish.

Oh jeez, Nike super shoes now in the women's lead. Synthetic is gonna have a conniption fit!

Just a complete guess but it might be to give the commentators a little rest

the still pictures i've seen (!) on twitter suggest the same - she looks strong! and apparently laying down 3:20 kilometers...

Rudy only 24 seconds back out of T1...

Tim O'Donnell manages to fuck up the bike mount

these transitions are looking like an AG bloopers reel

Hahaha my thoughts exactly! The women's broadcast is a goner, but losing it was worth the comedy of men's T1!

Don't know, but perhaps 5 ITU world championships, a couple of Olympic golds or maybe 3 Ironman's. A couple of b races won't do the job.
