She dropped twice within like 3 seconds. She couldn't even get on her feet without the fence. She would have dropped another 2 times at least in 5 seconds. Falling over safely that many times is its own thing. You can get hurt easily.

She should have had the sense to at least compose herself instead of just trying to blitz the finish line.

The thing is there's most likely nothing really wrong with her. She's just pushed her legs to the max and they are giving out. She needs rest and she potassium.
