Over where? In general, races often get shortened at lower levels to a: get through the programme quicker, and b: narrow the gap between athletes of different abilities. Reading runs abnormally long pursuit matches, and I think that's probably to encourage local testers to have a go, since the pacing is a bit more what they're used to.
