Patrick (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Isobel (H-DR) started at 8:36 AM. That gave Isobel a 14 minutes head start on Patrick. On foot, Patrick ran 1:22:10 and Isobel ran 1:35:54 — Patrick was 13:44 faster than Isobel. Patrick took official place 888th (time-based 711th) and Isobel took official place 885th (time-based 1030th). Isobel's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Patrick was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Patrick gained 5:08 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
