Gordon (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Torsten (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM. That gave Torsten a 4 minutes head start on Gordon. On foot, Gordon ran 1:01:06 and Torsten ran 1:04:43 — Gordon was 3:37 faster than Torsten. Gordon took official place 555th (time-based 86th) and Torsten took official place 550th (time-based 173rd).
