Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +30.92% off the PAX winner; Chuck finishes around +22.16%, so about 8.8 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Chuck is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 4.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +22.67% in the first half of these events to +22.16% in the second half.
  • 1.5 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.
  • 3 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E5, would have been 2.000 s quicker and 9 PAX places higher clean.
