Interpretation
Noah (X-DR) started at 8:49 AM; Josie (M-DR) started at 8:40 AM. That gave Josie a 9 minutes head start on Noah. On foot, Noah ran 1:36:50 and Josie ran 1:45:38 — Noah was 8:48 faster than Josie. Noah took official place 1172nd (time-based 1054th) and Josie took official place 1168th (time-based 1174th). Josie's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Noah was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Noah gained 3:12 from Cardiac to White Gate.
