Rapidly overhauling the Elite Women athletes despite having started 20 minutes later, a group of Wheelchair athletes rounds the corner onto Quebec Way. Here we see number 38, Masayuki Higuchi, who finished 7th in a time of 1:32.33 and number 25, Marcel Hug, who clocked a time of 1:32.27 to finish 2nd. The tightness of the times tells a story of an exciting bunched finish.
