Interpretation

Sean (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 26 minutes head start on Sean because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Sean ran 1:15:31 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 27:02 faster than Sean. Sean took official place 727th (time-based 503rd) and Edward took official place 2nd (time-based 1st). Edward was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Edward gained 12:15 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
