Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +9.36% off the PAX winner; Tim finishes around +3.12%, so about 6.2 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Tim is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Trending faster: median gap went from +4.34% in the first half of these events to +1.73% in the second half.
  • 1.2 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 2 is where mistakes happen most: 40% of run 2s were coned or DNF.
  • 4 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E7, would have been 0.659 s quicker and 4 PAX places higher clean.
