The start of the women's steeplechase final. Because of the small field, the women went straight to a final.	Jen Michel leads over the first water barrier.	Kelly MacDonald, Mollie DeFrancesco and Elizabeth Jackson follow.	Dawn Cleary, Laura Turner, Lisa Aguilera, Lisa Nye and Kara Ormond follow.	L-R: MacDonald, Cleary, Turner, DeFrancesco, Jackson and Michel.
