Interpretation

On foot, Simon ran 1:44:08 and Karen ran 1:54:49 — Simon was 10:41 faster than Karen. Simon took official place 1259th (time-based 1157th) and Karen took official place 1255th (time-based 1258th). Karen's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Simon was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Simon gained 7:12 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
