My understanding, based on someone being ahead of the lead runner, is the PU covering 3rd, regardless of where the fielders are
and the U1 rotating home when the PU does that, even if late.
Then, the PU can judge here the play is going; possibly call off the U1 if the U1 is too late.

The PU has way less that half the distance to cover and doesn't have to traverse the area between the player with the ball and the plate.
BTW, I'm addressing the OP only. Personally, as a UIC, I'd rather U1 be sure and confident with the play @ 1B than worrying about getting to foul territory and to the far side of the plate prior to the runner approaching. The coverage of 3rd & home is a relatively easy task for the PU with just one runner to watch.
