Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +16.34% off the PAX winner; Bob finishes around +10.19%, so about 6.1 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Bob is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Median gap went from +10.18% in the first half of these events to +10.19% in the second half.
  • 5.3 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 67% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 2 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E5, would have been 2.000 s quicker and 19 PAX places higher clean.
