In a thrilling race on February 7, the North American touched home in 1h55m44s72, while Bruni needed 2h06m11s50 to complete the race.<\/p>\n<p>Among men, it was a very interesting finish between Meyer and Italy\u2019s <strong>Simone Ruffini<\/strong>. At the 2015 FINA World Championships in Kazan (RUS), the European athlete got the gold in the 25km, while the US star was silver medallist. In Argentina, the order of arrival was reversed in the 10km, with Ruffini touching second in 1h55m45s44, less than a second behind the winner. Another Italian, <strong>Federico Vanelli<\/strong>, grabbed bronze, in a time of 1h55m47s31. The winner of the 2015 FINA\/HOSA 10km Marathon Swimming World Cup, Germany\u2019s <strong>Christian Reichert<\/strong>, was only 15th in Argentina.<\/p>\n<p>In the women\u2019s field, <strong>Rachele Bruni<\/strong> confirmed her overall victory last year in the series, triumphing by more than three seconds over <strong>Poliana Okimoto<\/strong> (BRA), runner-up in 2h06m15s00. Samantha Arevalo, from Ecuador, completed the podium, in a time of 2h06m22s72. The Italian champion revalidated her win from 2015 also in Viedma, in the start of a season that also saw her triumphing in three other races (Abu Dhabi, UAE; Setubal, POR; and Lac Megantic, CAN). Arevalo\u2019s bronze is her second success in this circuit, after earning silver in the ninth and penultimate race of 2015 in Chun\u2019An (CHN).<\/p>\n<p>38 men and 24 women, representing 17 nations took the plunge in Argentinean waters.
