Amanda (Q-DR) started at 8:43 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 19 minutes head start on Amanda because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Amanda ran 1:20:55 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 32:26 faster than Amanda. Amanda took official place 702nd (time-based 674th) 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 12:34 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
