Interpretation

Stephen (V-INV) started at 8:20 AM; Michael (Y-INV) started at 8:23 AM. That gave Stephen a 3 minutes head start on Michael. On foot, Stephen ran 1:02:00 and Michael ran 59:04 — Michael was 2:56 faster than Stephen. Stephen took official place 84th (time-based 112th) and Michael took official place 87th (time-based 55th).
