Who would get rigor mortis first if they died a marathon runner on a hot day who dies of a heart attack or a school teacher sitting down in a cool room in winter who dies from a stroke?

marathon runner on a hot day has had a sustained increased metabolic rate and thus a depleted ATP supply. He would experience rigor mortis at times within seconds following death. Although the school teacher's metabolic rate may be somewhat elevated on a cool winter day, it is no where near the level of the marathon runner's.
