Athlete B
OfficialMurray Rosenblith
#1346 · 2:25:21 · M75 · Group AAA · DR
Wave start 8:27 AM (AAA-DR)
Interpretation
Mark (AAA-INV) started at 8:00 AM; Murray (AAA-DR) started at 8:27 AM. That gave Mark a 27 minutes head start on Murray because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Mark ran 2:51:19 and Murray ran 2:25:21 — Murray was 25:58 faster than Mark. Mark took official place 1343rd (time-based 1386th) and Murray took official place 1346th (time-based 1360th). Mark's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Murray was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Murray gained 10:09 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
