Reigning world champion Catherine Ndereba of Kenya won the silver medal by one second in a sprint to the finish over Zhou Chunxiu (China), who earned bronze. Ndereba finished 22 seconds behind the winner in 2:27.06. Tomescu-Dita broke from the pack halfway through the 42 km race, setting such a relentless pace that she pulled ahead by as much as 1:17 with 20 minutes to go.

    Let the results testify the truth of Beijing’s air quality. CNN and other medias couldn’t tell the summer heat and humidity from pollution. Phelps got eight gold metals, numerous world and Olympic records got broken in Beijing. Those athletes who decided not to come are their own loss. If the air quality is bad, how could those records get broken? Let the truth and numbers speak for themselves. CNN, eat your heart out!!!!

    Congratulations Constantina on your big win. Unlike CNN you spoke the truth.
