Interpretation
Simon (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Ben (P-DR) started at 8:42 AM. That gave Ben a 8 minutes head start on Simon. On foot, Simon ran 1:44:08 and Ben ran 1:51:36 — Simon was 7:28 faster than Ben. Simon took official place 1259th (time-based 1157th) and Ben took official place 1254th (time-based 1239th). Ben's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Simon was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Simon gained 3:18 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
