Peter and the other disciple (presumably John), hearing the news, run to the tomb to see if what Mary reported was so.  Upon arrival, they actually enter the tomb, see that Mary had told them the truth, and return to where they were staying, unsure how to respond, numb from the catastrophic events of the last few days.
