text feed no better, get an update once every three laps

for those of you that missed heat 1.

HEAT ONE:

Saucony’s Amanda Dunne brought the field through an extremely pedestrian 40 seconds at 200 and then 81.0 at 400. The pace continued to be extremely slow as the field went through 800 in 2:45.3. Needless to say, everyone was still in the mix at 3:28.15 for 1000 meters.

Coming off of 1100 meters, Renee Metivier Baillie put in a HUGE move, opening up a 40 meter lead at 1200 going through at 4:06.7. In the space of 200 meters, she put over three seconds on the field with a roughly 75 second lap from 1000 to 1400.

Baillie hit the 1600 at 5:20.9 with a 74.9 and now had a five second lead. She hit 2K with a 77.3 lead and Lisa Uhl moved into the lead of the chase pack which now was only three seconds back and within 200 meters the pack had swallowed her up. As the pack hit 2400, Uhl surged to the lead and Julie Culley was right with her. Baillie was in third with 2012 NCAA Champion Abbey D’Agostino of Dartmouth lurking in fourth and Cal’s Deborah Maier in fifth.

The leaders hit 9:43.24 at 3000, meaning their last 1000 was a respectable 3:05.

As the pack hit 3200 in 10:19.0, Uhl was metronomical at 72 pace, and was followed by Culley, D’Agostino, Maier, a resurgent Brie Felnagle and Julia Lucas.

With three laps to go, the lead pack was eight and also included Kathy Kroeger of Stanford, Georgetown’s Emily Infeld and Providence’s Emily Sisson.

By 4K, Lucas had moved into third as the pack hit 12:46.2. The last kilo was down to 3:03.

Lucas moved confidently to the lead with 800 to go, with Culley in second. Sadly for Letsrun fanboys, Felnagle was not dropped.

With a lap to go, Uhl hung on for sixth, 10 meters ahead of Kroeger and Sisson. The lead pack of Culley, Lucas, D’Agostino, Maier and Infeld were all together as D’Agostino finished strongly for the win as the final 1000 was run in 2:57.
