Interpretation
Ken (K-DR) started at 8:38 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 14 minutes head start on Ken because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Ken ran 1:55:01 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 1:06:32 faster than Ken. Ken took official place 1245th (time-based 1260th) 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 24:37 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
