Interpretation
Michael (W-INV) started at 8:21 AM; Walter (Y-INV) started at 8:23 AM. That gave Michael a 2 minutes head start on Walter. On foot, Michael ran 1:19:00 and Walter ran 1:18:44 — Walter was 0:16 faster than Michael. Michael took official place 503rd (time-based 615th) and Walter took official place 506th (time-based 604th). Michael's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Walter was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Michael gained 0:55 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
