Her bib number was in the 600s while all the elites had bibs in the 100s, and she started the race 13 minutes after everyone else on page 1 of the results. Looks like she was the first finisher among all non-elites. 7th American finisher.
Considering there were 68 elites in the field, and she finished 22nd, methinks Anna should not have been starting in the next wave back with the unwashed masses. Outstanding performance.
