+// record distances you got earlier actually just has very bad kerning. There's really
+// only one race - ignore the spaces between the numbers on each line.
+
+// So, the example from before:
+
+// Time:      7  15   30
+// Distance:  9  40  200
+
+// ...now instead means this:
+
+// Time:      71530
+// Distance:  940200
+
+// Now, you have to figure out how many ways there are to win this single race. In this
+// example, the race lasts for 71530 milliseconds and the record distance you need to
+// beat is 940200 millimeters. You could hold the button anywhere from 14 to 71516
+// milliseconds and beat the record, a total of 71503 ways!
+
+// How many ways can you beat the record in this one much longer race?
