#1196 · 1:46:40 · M60 · Group N · DR
Wave start 8:41 AM (N-DR)
Athlete B
OfficialLloyd Kahn
#1194 · 2:27:11 · M91 · Group AAA · INV
Wave start 8:00 AM (AAA-INV)
Interpretation
Nick (N-DR) started at 8:41 AM; Lloyd (AAA-INV) started at 8:00 AM. That gave Lloyd a 41 minutes head start on Nick because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Nick ran 1:46:40 and Lloyd ran 2:27:11 — Nick was 40:31 faster than Lloyd. Nick took official place 1196th (time-based 1192nd) and Lloyd took official place 1194th (time-based 1363rd). Lloyd's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Nick was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Nick gained 15:10 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
