Interpretation
Barry (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 26 minutes head start on Barry because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Barry ran 1:25:18 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 36:49 faster than Barry. Barry took official place 962nd (time-based 797th) and Edward took official place 2nd (time-based 1st). Edward was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Edward gained 15:47 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
