Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +5.49% off the PAX winner; Donovan finishes around +2.38%, so about 3.1 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Donovan is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Median gap went from +1.38% in the first half of these events to +4.29% in the second half.
  • 1.1 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 4 is where mistakes happen most: 36% of run 4s were coned or DNF.
  • 6 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at SPK #3, would have been 1.049 s quicker and 20 PAX places higher clean.
