Interpretation
Wales (Q-DR) started at 8:43 AM; Lou (AAA-INV) started at 8:00 AM. That gave Lou a 43 minutes head start on Wales because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Wales ran 2:35:28 and Lou ran 3:12:10 — Wales was 36:42 faster than Lou. Wales took official place 1389th (time-based 1372nd) and Lou took official place 1385th (time-based 1397th). Lou's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Wales was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Wales gained 13:59 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
