Let's forget about contact and focus on whether you thought the runner had to pull up or otherwise adjust because the fielder was there. If the runner was hindered, that's all we need. Contact often doesn't occur, but it's still obstruction if there was material hindrance. A millisecond? At the least, highly suspected t there wasn't some hindrance.
