What an exciting race! Tolar led from the get-go and held through the 185m mark. Muller made a good move starting at the 150 to close on Tolar but ran out of gas with 15m to go. Correia waited a little longer and seemed to fade the least as she took the lead with just 10m to go and coasted to a surprise victory in 1:57.33.
