The race had 5,162 finishers.
The field heads around the first turn...
...about 10 seconds into the race.
L-R: Luminita Talpos, Katie McGregor, Carrie Tollefson and Elva Dryer...
...move to the front in the first mile.
Also in there (behind McGregor) is #2, Tatiana Khmeleva.
Kate (right) and Laura O'Neill run just behind the lead pack.
The Tufts course is flat and fast, with just a few small hills on the over and underpasses.
Coming out from under a bridge, L-R: McGregor, Talpos, Khmeleva, Tollefson and Dryer.
About 30 seconds before they hit the mile mark, these five women continued to set the pace.
Around a mile and a half, Dryer was still with the lead pack...
...but before she hit the two-mile mark, Dryer began to pull away.
