Interpretation
Michael (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Eric (T-DR) started at 8:45 AM. That gave Eric a 5 minutes head start on Michael. On foot, Michael ran 1:51:38 and Eric ran 1:56:37 — Michael was 4:59 faster than Eric. Michael took official place 1305th (time-based 1241st) and Eric took official place 1304th (time-based 1269th). Eric's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Michael was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Michael gained 5:51 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
