Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +17.70% off the PAX winner; Kevin finishes around +10.26%, so about 7.4 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Kevin is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 5.
  • Median gap went from +8.67% in the first half of these events to +12.37% in the second half.
  • 1.4 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 60% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 2 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E5, would have been 1.317 s quicker and 9 PAX places higher clean.
