I apologize for being vague in my odds. I meant one out of every two athletes put in that position. Sure, it was gritty. But c'mon, the adrenaline is so ridiculous in that position along with-the fact that she probably felt a sense of unwarranted humiliation in that sort of position. Instinct + adrenaline in that situation and I bet more than half of the athletes are crawling to the finish line as fast as possible.

A longer distance than this video showed makes it a totally different situation for me.
