On foot, Samir ran 1:23:54 and Christopher ran 1:21:55 — Christopher was 1:59 faster than Samir. Samir took official place 830th (time-based 765th) and Christopher took official place 831st (time-based 705th). Samir's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Christopher was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Christopher gained 1:20 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
