    Tanaka going out with a huge lead at the start of the first women’s 1500 m repechage. My instinct says this is likely to be a poor strategy.

      And going into the final lap that instinct seems correct. She’s now slipped to 4th, and seemingly falling further.

        Ooof yeah. She looks to be really struggling even to stay on her feet going round the final bend falling to 11th of 15 as Ethiopia’s Tsegay, Britain’s Muir, and Kenya’s Ejore finish in the top 3 places of that heat.
