Week 13: How they close to win

[wgormley]

I found myself clicking through all of the events just to see how big the differences were between the three winners. This is a good thing because it means that the visualization allowed for quick data abstraction. But I could not agree more that the fixed y-axis is a major oversight. I understand that visualization creator might have wanted to keep events comparable to each other, and I think that is fine, but provide some interactivity. Default to a certain value to allow that cross event examination to take place, but allow the user to zoom out in order to visualize just how big of a difference there was in finishers. Another approach could have been to use percentages instead of distance values. Overall, an interesting visualization, but could have been much more with some added features.
