Wave start 8:50 AM (Y-DR)
Athlete B

Wave start 8:10 AM (J-INV)
Interpretation
Jesse (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Chris (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM. That gave Chris a 40 minutes head start on Jesse because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Jesse ran 1:22:03 and Chris ran 1:00:42 — Chris was 21:21 faster than Jesse. Jesse took official place 887th (time-based 710th) 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 8:46 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
