Interpretation
Raymond (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM; William (Z-DR) started at 8:51 AM. That gave Raymond a 5 minutes head start on William. On foot, Raymond ran 1:16:25 and William ran 1:11:27 — William was 4:58 faster than Raymond. Raymond took official place 674th (time-based 537th) and William took official place 675th (time-based 370th). Raymond's head start was enough to flip the official order even though William was faster on foot. Biggest swing: William gained 2:38 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
