Interpretation
Tom (Y-INV) started at 8:23 AM; Christopher (P-INV) started at 8:15 AM. That gave Christopher a 8 minutes head start on Tom. On foot, Tom ran 1:06:58 and Christopher ran 1:14:58 — Tom was 8:00 faster than Christopher. Tom took official place 284th (time-based 229th) and Christopher took official place 283rd (time-based 481st). Christopher's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Tom was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Tom gained 3:20 from Muir Woods to Cardiac.
