Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +1.79% off the PAX winner; Eric finishes around +1.22%, so about 0.6 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Eric is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 1.
  • Median gap went from +0.91% in the first half of these events to +1.60% in the second half.
  • 1.5 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 3 is where mistakes happen most: 50% of run 3s were coned or DNF.
  • 5 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at HOU #7, would have been 2.000 s quicker and 24 PAX places higher clean.
