Interpretation
Thomas (T-DR) started at 8:45 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 35 minutes head start on Thomas because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Thomas ran 1:41:09 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 40:27 faster than Thomas. Thomas took official place 1181st (time-based 1114th) 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 19:00 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
