Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +14.94% off the PAX winner; Kevin finishes around +10.85%, so about 4.1 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Kevin is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +11.09% in the first half of these events to +10.70% in the second half.
  • 1.5 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 5 is where mistakes happen most: 45% of run 5s were coned or DNF.
  • 7 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E5, would have been 2.000 s quicker and 11 PAX places higher clean.
