Interpretation
John (W-INV) started at 8:21 AM; Eric (AAA-INV) started at 8:00 AM. That gave Eric a 21 minutes head start on John. On foot, John ran 1:23:17 and Eric ran 1:44:05 — John was 20:48 faster than Eric. John took official place 517th (time-based 749th) and Eric took official place 515th (time-based 1156th). Eric's head start was enough to flip the official order even though John was faster on foot.
