Interpretation
Kai (Z-DR) started at 8:51 AM; Paul (W-DR) started at 8:48 AM. That gave Paul a 3 minutes head start on Kai. On foot, Kai ran 1:13:30 and Paul ran 1:16:20 — Kai was 2:50 faster than Paul. Kai took official place 711th (time-based 436th) and Paul took official place 707th (time-based 532nd). Paul's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Kai was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Paul gained 1:35 from Cardiac to White Gate.
