Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +7.88% off the PAX winner; Michael finishes around +4.14%, so about 3.7 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Michael is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 2.
  • Median gap went from +3.36% in the first half of these events to +6.38% in the second half.
  • 1.3 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 44% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 6 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at HOU #3, would have been 2.085 s quicker and 33 PAX places higher clean.
