Ledecky was well ahead early on, getting out to a lead of over three seconds a quarter of the way through. At the 1200-meter mark, it had gone up to nearly eight seconds. It wound up being a double-digit second victory.
She also won the event in Tokyo.
The lead got so far that cameras had to zoom out just to show the next-fastest swimmer.
Entering Wednesday, she had one medal in these games, taking home the bronze in the women’s 400m freestyle.
Ledecky will go for gold once again for the 800-meter freestyle, with the final coming up on Saturday afternoon.
