Interpretation
Penelope (A-DR) started at 8:29 AM; Stella (D-DR) started at 8:32 AM. That gave Penelope a 3 minutes head start on Stella. On foot, Penelope ran 2:00:59 and Stella ran 1:58:04 — Stella was 2:55 faster than Penelope. Penelope took official place 1225th (time-based 1294th) and Stella took official place 1229th (time-based 1279th). Penelope's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Stella was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Stella gained 2:08 from Cardiac to White Gate.
