Interpretation
Rick (L-DR) started at 8:39 AM; Matthew (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM. That gave Rick a 11 minutes head start on Matthew. On foot, Rick ran 2:12:35 and Matthew ran 2:04:18 — Matthew was 8:17 faster than Rick. Rick took official place 1345th (time-based 1338th) and Matthew took official place 1350th (time-based 1307th). Rick's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Matthew was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Matthew gained 4:38 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
