Interpretation

Michael (X-DR) started at 8:49 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 25 minutes head start on Michael because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Michael ran 1:27:34 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 39:05 faster than Michael. Michael took official place 1000th (time-based 852nd) 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 15:31 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
