Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +13.73% off the PAX winner; Michael finishes around +9.68%, so about 4.0 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Michael is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +9.68% in the first half of these events to +7.32% in the second half.
  • 1.0 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 3 is where mistakes happen most: 40% of run 3s were coned or DNF.
  • 2 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E3, would have been 0.865 s quicker and 10 PAX places higher clean.
