Interpretation
Elise (Q-DR) started at 8:43 AM; Megan (L-INV) started at 8:12 AM. That gave Megan a 31 minutes head start on Elise because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Elise ran 1:04:45 and Megan ran 1:34:16 — Elise was 29:31 faster than Megan. Elise took official place 533rd (time-based 174th) and Megan took official place 530th (time-based 994th). Megan's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Elise was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Elise gained 10:56 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
