Wave start 8:49 AM (X-DR)
Athlete B

Interpretation
Juan (X-DR) started at 8:49 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 25 minutes head start on Juan because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Juan ran 1:23:41 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 35:12 faster than Juan. Juan took official place 904th (time-based 760th) 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 13:47 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
