Eric (T-DR) started at 8:45 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 21 minutes head start on Eric because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Eric ran 1:56:37 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 1:08:08 faster than Eric. Eric took official place 1304th (time-based 1269th) and Edward took official place 2nd (time-based 1st). Edward was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Edward gained 28:32 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
