Emily (Q-DR) started at 8:43 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 33 minutes head start on Emily because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Emily ran 1:46:05 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 45:23 faster than Emily. Emily took official place 1212th (time-based 1181st) 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 17:53 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
