It would only be mirrored directly if you randomized the lanes beforehand.
Seeding fastest in the middle will override the differential in reaction

Well, I hate to clutter the list when it's already so busy, but I'm going to
venture another opinion.
Presumably, the meaning of significant here was limited to a statistical

to chance. Whether that has any practical
If you can find footage, you really should watch. Coincidentally, it was the
first meet I've watched this year on the internet and only the 3rd event.

Great article. I know Malmo was posting info at one point about his attempt
for an age-group mile record, or something of that sort. Is there an update?
He's among the many greats I'd love to meet (Rono, that is :) ).

Of course, unless The Times means last year as in nearly 24 months ago,
