Interpretation
Michelle (AAA-DR) started at 8:27 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 3 minutes head start on Michelle because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Michelle ran 1:46:33 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 58:04 faster than Michelle. Michelle took official place 920th (time-based 1190th) 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 21:00 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
