Interpretation
John (U-INV) started at 8:19 AM; Tom (R-INV) started at 8:17 AM. That gave Tom a 2 minutes head start on John. On foot, John ran 1:01:02 and Tom ran 1:02:58 — John was 1:56 faster than Tom. John took official place 54th (time-based 81st) and Tom took official place 53rd (time-based 134th). Tom's head start was enough to flip the official order even though John was faster on foot.
