Radcliffe, running her first serious race since winning the New York marathon last November, is preparing for the London Marathon on 17 April.
"I'm not happy because I never like being beaten, but it's not a disaster."
Radcliffe, who finished 23 seconds ahead of third placed Sally Barsosio of Kenyan, added: "My focus has obviously been on preparing for London and not surprisingly my legs felt a little heavy."
Ochichi's time was the fastest 10K time achieved by a woman in America, beating by two seconds the previous mark set by Asmae Leghzaoui of Morocco in New York two years ago.Good luck in London Paula, from the SCMT!
