Interpretation
Tom (K-DR) started at 8:38 AM; Andy (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM. That gave Tom a 12 minutes head start on Andy. On foot, Tom ran 1:23:00 and Andy ran 1:11:03 — Andy was 11:57 faster than Tom. Tom took official place 656th (time-based 738th) and Andy took official place 658th (time-based 354th). Tom's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Andy was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Andy gained 5:00 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
