A seven-minute head start didn't give Janet Cherobon-Bawcom the time she needed to claim an extra $10,000 offered as an equalizer bonus at Sunday's USA 10 Mile Championship hosted at the Medtronic TC 10 Mile. Cherobon-Bawcom covered the distance in 54 minutes, 15 seconds, and finished thirty-one seconds behind men's champion Mohamed Trafeh, who ran 46:46, just eleven seconds off course record pace.

What started out as record-setting pace in the women's race slowed shortly before the half-way point. The women were on pace to break the course record of 2:26:51 set by Zinaida Semenova (RUS) in 2001 and then tied by Irina Permitina (RUS) in 2004. But the back half of the course surprised women's champion Yeshimebet Tadesse-Bifa, who 
finished in 2:28:24.
