Tab (B-DR) started at 8:30 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 20 minutes head start on Tab because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Tab ran 2:00:39 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 59:57 faster than Tab. Tab took official place 1231st (time-based 1291st) 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 22:12 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
