Interpretation
Ryan (X-DR) started at 8:49 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 25 minutes head start on Ryan because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Ryan ran 1:43:26 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 54:57 faster than Ryan. Ryan took official place 1240th (time-based 1146th) 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 22:14 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
