Interpretation
John (Y-INV) started at 8:23 AM; Bradley (W-INV) started at 8:21 AM. That gave Bradley a 2 minutes head start on John. On foot, John ran 1:02:22 and Bradley ran 1:04:17 — John was 1:55 faster than Bradley. John took official place 166th (time-based 120th) and Bradley took official place 163rd (time-based 162nd).
