Interpretation
Mike (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM; Suzy (P-DR) started at 8:42 AM. That gave Suzy a 4 minutes head start on Mike. On foot, Mike ran 1:45:47 and Suzy ran 1:48:43 — Mike was 2:56 faster than Suzy. Mike took official place 1237th (time-based 1176th) and Suzy took official place 1232nd (time-based 1219th). Suzy's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Mike was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Mike gained 1:43 from Windy Gap to Muir Woods.
