Interpretation
Lutz (W-DR) started at 8:48 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 24 minutes head start on Lutz because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Lutz ran 1:23:41 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 35:12 faster than Lutz. Lutz took official place 876th (time-based 759th) 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 13:24 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
