Alex (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM; Julia (Q-INV) started at 8:16 AM. That gave Julia a 30 minutes head start on Alex because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Alex ran 1:42:32 and Julia ran 57:02 — Julia was 45:30 faster than Alex. Alex took official place 1203rd (time-based 1128th) and Julia took official place 3rd (time-based 32nd).
