Interpretation
Molly (H-DR) started at 8:36 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 26 minutes head start on Molly because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Molly ran 1:31:57 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 31:15 faster than Molly. Molly took official place 786th (time-based 942nd) 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 14:30 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
