Interpretation
Eric (Z-DR) started at 8:51 AM; Tom (K-DR) started at 8:38 AM. That gave Tom a 13 minutes head start on Eric. On foot, Eric ran 1:10:01 and Tom ran 1:23:00 — Eric was 12:59 faster than Tom. Eric took official place 657th (time-based 323rd) and Tom took official place 656th (time-based 738th). Tom's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Eric was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Eric gained 3:45 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
