Theodor (Y-DR) started at 8:50 AM; Edward (Z-INV) started at 8:24 AM. That gave Edward a 26 minutes head start on Theodor because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Theodor ran 1:51:10 and Edward ran 48:29 — Edward was 1:02:41 faster than Theodor. Theodor took official place 1298th (time-based 1236th) and Edward took official place 2nd (time-based 1st). Edward was faster on foot and finished ahead on the official clock too. Biggest swing: Edward gained 22:57 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
