The finishing position of each runner are:

Sunny came 1st, and wore No 2, with color Red

Kristy came 2nd and wore No 3, with color Yellow

Edna came 3rd and wore No 1, with color  Green

Jennifer came 4th and wore No 4, with color Blue

Given that the question revealed that Sunny came first, that is settled; then the runner wearing number 2 wore red,

Also Kirsty beat Edna, and the person who  came second wore number 3, however, Jennifer didn't wear yellow which makes Kristy to be the person.

The runner in yellow beat the runner in green, and since Jennifer is not the one in yellow, then that means it is Edna, and it is revealed that Edna wore number 1.

Hence, since only one  of the runners wore the same number as their final position, which Blue, then the person available is  Jennifer.
