Stella (D-DR) started at 8:32 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 8 minutes head start on Stella because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Stella ran 1:58:04 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 1:09:35 faster than Stella. Stella took official place 1229th (time-based 1279th) 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 25:44 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
