James (V-DR) started at 8:47 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 37 minutes head start on James because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, James ran 1:48:52 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 48:10 faster than James. James took official place 1270th (time-based 1221st) 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 17:32 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
