## Prompt

Ann, Beth, and Cara finished a race in distinct positions. Ann did not finish first. Beth finished immediately ahead of Ann. Cara did not finish last. Who finished in each position?

## Response

Cara finished in 1st place, Beth finished in 2nd place, and Ann finished in 3rd place. This structure is the only order that satisfies all provided constraints.

## Race Results

| Position | Runner |
| --- | --- |
| 1st Place | Cara |
| 2nd Place | Beth |
| 3rd Place | Ann |

## Logical Breakdown

* **3rd Place (Ann):** Ann cannot be 1st. If Ann were 2nd, Beth would be 1st (immediately ahead of Ann), leaving Cara in 3rd place. However, Cara did not finish last, so Ann cannot be 2nd. Therefore, Ann must be 3rd.
* **2nd Place (Beth):** Since Beth finished immediately ahead of Ann (3rd place), Beth must be in 2nd place.
* **1st Place (Cara):** With 2nd and 3rd places filled, Cara takes 1st place, which complies with the constraint that she did not finish last.
