Interpretation

Alden (L-INV) started at 8:12 AM; Nikko (T-DR) started at 8:45 AM. That gave Alden a 33 minutes head start on Nikko because the Runner wave starts 27 minutes after the Invitational wave. On foot, Alden ran 1:32:22 and Nikko ran 1:00:00 — Nikko was 32:22 faster than Alden. Alden took official place 519th (time-based 951st) and Nikko took official place 524th (time-based 67th). Alden's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Nikko was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Nikko gained 16:42 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
