Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +8.93% off the PAX winner; Josh finishes around +6.62%, so about 2.3 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Josh is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 2.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +6.96% in the first half of these events to +5.60% in the second half.
  • 1.4 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 5 is where mistakes happen most: 60% of run 5s were coned or DNF.
  • 2 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at HOU #8, would have been 1.222 s quicker and 26 PAX places higher clean.
