Interpretation
Paul (B-DR) started at 8:30 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 20 minutes head start on Paul because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Paul ran 2:17:18 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 1:16:36 faster than Paul. Paul took official place 1329th (time-based 1347th) and Chris took official place 1st (time-based 71st). Chris was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Chris gained 24:37 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
