Linear & Circular Races, the Fast Way

One idea unlocks every question: in a race both runners share the winner's time, so the distance ratio equals the speed ratio. Add that to relative speed on a loop and you can crack beats, head starts, and circular meetings in seconds. Pick any topic — nothing is locked.
