PALACIOS of Guatemala was feeling the extra distance.
ORTEGA of Mexico
Yin of China.
CASEY was also moving up in the field overall and in the top 30.
GARCÍA LEÓN turned the switch and opened up a 30 second gap on 2nd place clocking just over 4:30 a lap.

MICHTA-COFFEY moves up to 22nd.
Could she crack top twenty?
ORTÍZ and PALACIOS taking the turn.
