Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +16.58% off the PAX winner; Michael finishes around +10.61%, so about 6.0 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Michael is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 4.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +10.61% in the first half of these events to +10.61% in the second half.
  • 2.0 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 3 is where mistakes happen most: 44% of run 3s were coned or DNF.
  • 6 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E7, would have been 1.479 s quicker and 16 PAX places higher clean.
