Interpretation
Thomas (U-DR) started at 8:46 AM; Jeffrey (Q-DR) started at 8:43 AM. That gave Jeffrey a 3 minutes head start on Thomas. On foot, Thomas ran 1:48:37 and Jeffrey ran 1:51:37 — Thomas was 3:00 faster than Jeffrey. Thomas took official place 1262nd (time-based 1218th) and Jeffrey took official place 1261st (time-based 1240th). Jeffrey's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Thomas was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Thomas gained 1:23 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
