Interpretation
Erik (P-DR) started at 8:42 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 32 minutes head start on Erik because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Erik ran 1:20:46 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 20:04 faster than Erik. Erik took official place 680th (time-based 671st) and Chris took official place 1st (time-based 71st). Chris was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Chris gained 7:25 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
