Interpretation
Jerry (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 26 minutes head start on Jerry because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Jerry ran 1:43:05 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 54:36 faster than Jerry. Jerry took official place 1248th (time-based 1139th) 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 19:31 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
