Interpretation
Adam (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Greg (W-DR) started at 8:48 AM. That gave Greg a 2 minutes head start on Adam. On foot, Adam ran 1:25:26 and Greg ran 1:27:21 — Adam was 1:55 faster than Greg. Adam took official place 968th (time-based 801st) and Greg took official place 963rd (time-based 844th). Greg's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Adam was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Adam gained 4:10 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
