Interpretation
John (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 36 minutes head start on John because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, John ran 1:28:53 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 28:11 faster than John. John took official place 950th (time-based 884th) and Chris took official place 1st (time-based 71st). Chris was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Chris gained 10:10 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
