On foot, Ellery ran 1:48:06 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 59:37 faster than Ellery. Ellery took official place 1179th (time-based 1210th) 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 23:09 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
