Justin (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 22 minutes head start on Justin because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Justin ran 1:40:33 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 52:04 faster than Justin. Justin took official place 1187th (time-based 1104th) 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 19:15 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
