WR pace but not WR

I'm confused. He hasn't caught up has he?

WR pace, or rate, is an arbritrary linear figure of appx 206 miles per day, over the year. if a rider is over that and can maintain being over it then the indicator is that WR can be eclipsed.

WR will only be known once one of the combatants has surpassed (no mean feat, even today) TG's original record.

Yeah, so he's back to being nearly at TG's pace? Is this for his first start or second start? Presumably his first attempt, in which case it's still possible for him to beat the record this year unless Kurt gets there first and in that case he'll probably be looking to his second attempt start?
