Andrew (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 40 minutes head start on Andrew because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Andrew ran 1:45:11 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 44:29 faster than Andrew. Andrew took official place 1266th (time-based 1168th) 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 19:45 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
