Treniere Clement used a powerful kick on the last lap to win the race in 4:06.73. Jen Toomey finished second in 4:07.39 and Amy Mortimer third in 4:07.58.

Clement, who has been on a roll recently, will be the U.S.'s lone 1,500m representative in Helsinki if nothing changes. Clement has the "B" standard, but she will chase the "A" standard in the upcoming weeks...

...and based on her recent performances, it seems that running under 4:05.80 will not be a problem for her, as long as she gets into the right race.
