Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +21.67% off the PAX winner; Doug finishes around +13.17%, so about 8.5 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Doug is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 5.
  • Median gap went from +12.58% in the first half of these events to +13.56% in the second half.
  • 1.5 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 38% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 3 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E8, would have been 0.991 s quicker and 10 PAX places higher clean.
