On foot, Francis ran 1:37:09 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 36:27 faster than Francis. Francis took official place 1191st (time-based 1059th) and Chris took official place 1st (time-based 71st). Chris was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Chris gained 13:20 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
