Happy October everyone! Â Can’t you just smell the ski season around the corner?
Previously on Statistical Skier:
- We took a look at the quality of OPA Cup and Scandinavian Cup (sort of a minor league race series for the World Cup) races as measure by the FIS points awarded to the top skiers at those races.
- I revisited some triathlon data that a friend sent me, in order to share some wacky (to me) looking scatterplots of the associations between your performances in each leg (Swim, Bike, Run) and your overall performance. Â Adam shared some expert opinion in the comments that sheds some light on the issue.
- Finally, I got super-technical (at least, compared to what I usually do) and modelled the length of a World Cup skier’s career using survival analysis models, looking for some factors that might be associated with longer or shorter careers.
Another travel weekend for me. Â When will my friends stop getting married? Â Ever?
