I've been following her times here: http://tracking.ironmanlive.com/news...&sort=&dir=asc

She started so strong on the bike, but probably hit the hills and heat and slowed down (not surprising!) Looks like she's struggling on the run starting out. I can only imagine how very difficult it must be. Heck, I struggle running just a few miles and can't imagine running a marathon, much less after a century+ bike ride and long swim too.

No matter what, she is a hero!
