Interpretation
Adam (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Julia (Q-INV) started at 8:16 AM. That gave Julia a 34 minutes head start on Adam because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Adam ran 1:25:26 and Julia ran 57:02 — Julia was 28:24 faster than Adam. Adam took official place 968th (time-based 801st) and Julia took official place 3rd (time-based 32nd). Julia was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Julia gained 10:21 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
