Narrative:

Approaching mulrr intersection we were on the delro arrival to iad about 2 miles from mulrr we were switched to the hyper arrival. This was too close to mulrr which is a common waypoint to both arrivals. By the time we got the arrival switched we had overflown mullr by 1.9 miles. We immediately turned to join the hyper arrival.
