Interpretation
Albert (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Paul (Q-DR) started at 8:43 AM. That gave Paul a 7 minutes head start on Albert. On foot, Albert ran 1:21:19 and Paul ran 1:28:03 — Albert was 6:44 faster than Paul. Albert took official place 872nd (time-based 686th) and Paul took official place 867th (time-based 866th). Paul's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Albert was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Albert gained 3:07 from Cardiac to White Gate.
