Interpretation
Penelope (A-DR) started at 8:29 AM; Ryan (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM. That gave Penelope a 17 minutes head start on Ryan. On foot, Penelope ran 2:00:59 and Ryan ran 1:44:01 — Ryan was 16:58 faster than Penelope. Penelope took official place 1225th (time-based 1294th) and Ryan took official place 1227th (time-based 1155th). Penelope's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Ryan was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Ryan gained 5:25 from Cardiac to White Gate.
