Interpretation

John (B-DR) started at 8:30 AM; Ben (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM. That gave John a 20 minutes head start on Ben. On foot, John ran 1:23:14 and Ben ran 1:03:20 — Ben was 19:54 faster than John. John took official place 570th (time-based 747th) and Ben took official place 571st (time-based 143rd). John's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Ben was faster on foot.
