Same situation BUT runner RETURNS to first base after collision. Do you give her 2nd or since she returned to 1st is she only protected to the base she was headed to?

Same answer, same result. Award the base the umpire judges would have been reached if there was no obstruction. Totally irrespective and regardless (but NOT irregardless) what base the runner attempts UNLESS the runner attempts a base beyond BOTH the base you judge she would have reached AND between the two bases she is obstructed.
