Interpretation
Ryan (X-DR) started at 8:49 AM; Mike (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM. That gave Mike a 3 minutes head start on Ryan. On foot, Ryan ran 1:43:26 and Mike ran 1:45:47 — Ryan was 2:21 faster than Mike. Ryan took official place 1240th (time-based 1146th) and Mike took official place 1237th (time-based 1176th). Mike's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Ryan was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Ryan gained 2:48 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
