Interpretation
Theodor (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; John (V-DR) started at 8:47 AM. That gave John a 3 minutes head start on Theodor. On foot, Theodor ran 1:51:10 and John ran 1:53:48 — Theodor was 2:38 faster than John. Theodor took official place 1298th (time-based 1236th) and John took official place 1295th (time-based 1255th). John's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Theodor was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Theodor gained 2:42 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
