One useful analysis is to see how long it took for the flip to take place in
the two trajectories where it did happen. If these are significant fractions
of the 200 ns length, then it is plausibly just a matter of chance that you
did not see such behavior in the third run. You could extend the third run
longer to see what happens.

This is not sufficient in general to sample RNA loop configurations.
