Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +8.29% off the PAX winner; David finishes around +3.81%, so about 4.5 points come over the remaining runs.
  • David is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +3.82% in the first half of these events to +3.10% in the second half.
  • 1.9 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 50% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 2 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E3, would have been 0.282 s quicker and 3 PAX places higher clean.
