Interpretation
Greg (D-DR) started at 8:32 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 8 minutes head start on Greg because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Greg ran 1:42:34 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 54:05 faster than Greg. Greg took official place 943rd (time-based 1130th) 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 21:03 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
