Interpretation
Ray (J-DR) started at 8:37 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 13 minutes head start on Ray because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Ray ran 1:36:37 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 48:08 faster than Ray. Ray took official place 923rd (time-based 1049th) 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 16:18 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
