Interpretation
Liam (Z-DR) started at 8:51 AM; Ben (SCR-DR) started at 8:52 AM. That gave Liam a 1 minute head start on Ben. On foot, Liam ran 1:13:09 and Ben ran 1:12:18 — Ben was 0:51 faster than Liam. Liam took official place 704th (time-based 428th) and Ben took official place 706th (time-based 400th). Liam's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Ben was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Ben gained 3:46 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
