Interpretation
Ed (V-DR) started at 8:47 AM; Eric (P-DR) started at 8:42 AM. That gave Eric a 5 minutes head start on Ed. On foot, Ed ran 1:21:35 and Eric ran 1:26:15 — Ed was 4:40 faster than Eric. Ed took official place 801st (time-based 694th) and Eric took official place 797th (time-based 818th). Eric's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Ed was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Ed gained 1:29 from Windy Gap to Muir Woods.
