On foot, Mark ran 2:51:19 and Stephen ran 2:00:02 — Stephen was 51:17 faster than Mark. Mark took official place 1343rd (time-based 1386th) and Stephen took official place 1339th (time-based 1288th). Stephen was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Stephen gained 20:22 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
