Interpretation
Dave (J-INV) started at 8:10 AM; Eric (AAA-INV) started at 8:00 AM. That gave Eric a 10 minutes head start on Dave. On foot, Dave ran 1:34:42 and Eric ran 1:44:05 — Dave was 9:23 faster than Eric. Dave took official place 520th (time-based 1001st) and Eric took official place 515th (time-based 1156th). Eric's head start was enough to flip the official order even though Dave was faster on foot. Biggest swing: Dave gained 2:49 from Cardiac to White Gate.
