Daniela Genovesi congratulations for this amazing result! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Now we’re waiting for Isabelle Pulver that leads category under 50

Race Across AmericaGENOVESI WINS & BREAKS WOMEN'S 50-59 RECORD
June 22, 2019 9:52 AM EDT
City Dock, Annapolis, Maryland

Women 60-69
Seana Hogan (USA) is going strong with 2575 miles completed. She’s currently 42 miles west of TS 44 in Athens, Ohio. Her pace is strong; her average speed is just a nick below 10 mph.

Women 50-59
Daniela Genovesi (Brazil) has won the women’s category overall as well as the 50-59 category over Leah Goldstein (Canada). Genovesi finished in a time of 10 day, 17 hours, and 59 minutes with an overall average speed of 11.9 mph to best the 50-59 age record of 10.33 mph set last year by Seana Hogan (USA). Genovesi's finish was also faster than her 2009 RAAM, in which she averaged 10.71 mph -- better with age -- as they say.

It would appear that Genovesi's strategy of sleeping more at the beginning of the race and gradually tapering her sleep helped her gain and build her winning lead.

Despite Goldstein’s teams hope that she’d climb her way back into the lead in the Appalachians, Genovesi crossed the finish line at 9:52 AM EDT. With 41 miles to go, Goldstein will finish before noon, barring catastrophe.

Women 40-49
Isa Pulver (Switzerland) has continued to stretch her lead over Alexandra Meixner (Austria). Pulver is in the Appalachians of western Maryland currently and has pedaled her way to 2874 miles. She’s 17 miles west of TS 49 in Hancock, Maryland. Meixner is 37 miles back and just 11 miles west of TS 46 in Grafton, West Virginia. Chieko Ozawa (Japan) continues to battle her way through the course and has ridden 2693 miles, placing her only 44 miles behind Meixner. Unfortunately, Elin Starup (Denmark) has withdrawn from the race. She was at 2307 miles when she and her crew decided she shouldn’t continue.
