Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +23.56% off the PAX winner; Steve finishes around +15.07%, so about 8.5 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Steve is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 4.
  • Median gap went from +12.62% in the first half of these events to +20.52% in the second half.
  • 1.9 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 71% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 7 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at SPK #9, would have been 0.921 s quicker and 10 PAX places higher clean.
