2 possibilities why she ran so poorly last out:

1) didn't like the off going

2) didn't like being so (uncharacteristically) close to the pace (and chasing) in a race that ultimately collapsed (with a high number of moves) and was won by the last mover

Another concern might be the distance.

This is a very competitive race.
