Interpretation
Gunnar (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Christopher (W-INV) started at 8:21 AM. That gave Christopher a 29 minutes head start on Gunnar because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Gunnar ran 1:01:59 and Christopher ran 1:30:05 — Gunnar was 28:06 faster than Christopher. Gunnar took official place 559th (time-based 110th) and Christopher took official place 554th (time-based 914th). Christopher's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Gunnar was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Gunnar gained 11:32 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
