Interpretation
Lisa (AAA-DR) started at 8:27 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 3 minutes head start on Lisa because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Lisa ran 2:00:14 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 1:11:45 faster than Lisa. Lisa took official place 1195th (time-based 1289th) 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 24:04 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
