Bobby (V-DR) started at 8:47 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 23 minutes head start on Bobby because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Bobby ran 1:25:11 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 36:42 faster than Bobby. Bobby took official place 890th (time-based 793rd) 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 14:48 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
