Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +7.83% off the PAX winner; Ward finishes around +5.55%, so about 2.3 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Ward is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Median gap went from +4.58% in the first half of these events to +6.12% in the second half.
  • 1.4 cones per event. Each cone is 2 s, about 3–4% on a 55 s course.
  • Run 2 is where mistakes happen most: 50% of run 2s were coned or DNF.
  • 3 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at SPK #10, would have been 0.460 s quicker and 7 PAX places higher clean.
