Interpretation
Amy (AAA-DR) started at 8:27 AM; Matthew (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM. That gave Amy a 23 minutes head start on Matthew. On foot, Amy ran 2:27:00 and Matthew ran 2:04:18 — Matthew was 22:42 faster than Amy. Amy took official place 1349th (time-based 1362nd) and Matthew took official place 1350th (time-based 1307th). Amy's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Matthew was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Matthew gained 11:10 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
