Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +6.80% off the PAX winner; Chris finishes around +5.49%, so about 1.3 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Chris is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 2.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +6.35% in the first half of these events to +4.92% in the second half.
  • Run 4 is where mistakes happen most: 25% of run 4s were coned or DNF.
  • 1 coned run was faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at HOU #12, would have been 0.196 s quicker and 5 PAX places higher clean.
