The "bracket" you choose is the time you expect to complete the race in.
Ex: 5 lap race, you choose 10 minutes as your time.
If you complete the race in 8 minutes, you beat your time.
Someone else chooses 12 minutes as their bracket. They finish in 13 minutes.
Person #2 is the winner, as they came closer to their chosen bracket.
If it works like drag racing, you (Example #1) would actually have been automatically DQ'd for "breaking out" of your bracket. It is actually better to run slower than your expected time than faster.
