Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +27.70% off the PAX winner; Austin finishes around +22.70%, so about 5.0 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Austin is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +23.17% in the first half of these events to +22.70% in the second half.
  • 2.3 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 2 is where mistakes happen most: 67% of run 2s were coned or DNF.
  • 2 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at SPK #3, would have been 2.000 s quicker and 20 PAX places higher clean.
