#1347 · 2:02:53 · M40 · Group Y · DR
Wave start 8:50 AM (Y-DR)
Interpretation
Mark (AAA-INV) started at 8:00 AM; Edmond (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM. That gave Mark a 50 minutes head start on Edmond because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Mark ran 2:51:19 and Edmond ran 2:02:53 — Edmond was 48:26 faster than Mark. Mark took official place 1343rd (time-based 1386th) and Edmond took official place 1347th (time-based 1302nd). Mark's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Edmond was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Edmond gained 15:36 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
