Her overall place was 1266 out of 1839 participants, with a gender placement of 631 among female runners.

Particularly noteworthy is Emily's performance at the 3-mile mark, where she increased her standing by 185 places compared to the 2-mile mark. Between miles 3 and 7, Emily maintained a consistent pace, despite the significant challenge of Hayes Hill, which likely contributed to the slower split times during that segment.
