Interpretation

Brian (L-INV) started at 8:12 AM; Ethan (SCR-INV) started at 8:25 AM. That gave Brian a 13 minutes head start on Ethan. On foot, Brian ran 1:09:53 and Ethan ran 56:53 — Ethan was 13:00 faster than Brian. Brian took official place 82nd (time-based 319th) and Ethan took official place 83rd (time-based 30th).
