Just go back to the main Preface post, and ignore the time-list as you read, and thus you will read the in-sequence list of people to whom Jesus appeared.
Here's the gist of the appearances most relevant to the initial question in this thread. (This is non-exhaustive; it may help you get the general flow, though.)
(1) Mary Magdalene and the other Mary visit the tomb before sunrise and see that the stone is rolled away. They run and tell Simon Peter and the Beloved Disciple.
(2) Simon Peter and the Beloved Disciple run to the tomb and see it empty. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary follow them.
(3) The other women (Salome, Joanna, and Namelessa) arrive at the tomb as Mary Magdalene and the other Mary re-arrive.
(4) The other women enter the tomb's main chamber; the two Marys do not. Two angels appear in the tomb, while one appears outside, and announce to the women that Jesus is risen.
(5) The main group of women depart from the tomb, intending to find the disciples and tell them what they experienced at the tomb.
(6) Mary Magdalene lingers behind, and enters the tomb. She encounters the two angels there, and then encounters the risen Jesus.
(7) Mary Magdalene runs and re-joins the main group of women. As they are on their way to the disciples, Jesus meets them all (and it is this encounter that is described in Matthew 28:8-10).
