On foot, Paula ran 1:56:07 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 55:25 faster than Paula. Paula took official place 1278th (time-based 1265th) 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 26:31 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
