Interpretation
Emily (Q-DR) started at 8:43 AM; Noah (Z-DR) started at 8:51 AM. That gave Emily a 8 minutes head start on Noah. On foot, Emily ran 1:25:28 and Noah ran 1:17:47 — Noah was 7:41 faster than Emily. Emily took official place 799th (time-based 802nd) and Noah took official place 803rd (time-based 575th). Emily's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Noah was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Noah gained 3:00 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
