Thomas (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 40 minutes head start on Thomas because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Thomas ran 1:39:59 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 39:17 faster than Thomas. Thomas took official place 1226th (time-based 1091st) and Chris took official place 1st (time-based 71st). Chris was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Chris gained 16:06 from Cardiac to White Gate.
