The percentile rank is the current position of the athlete compared to the competition. It goes from 0 to 100, where 0 is the best and 100 is the worst. It show the potential improvement for each station. The athlete should focus on the stations with the highest potential improvement and the biggest duration.

Sam Shepherd delivered an impressive performance at the 2024 Perth Hyrox race, finishing 9th overall out of 152 athletes and 4th in his age group. His total time of 01:03:16 places him in the top 5% overall and the top 11% in his age category. Sam's total running time was 00:30:12, which is 01:14 faster than the average, indicating a strong running profile. However, his performance in the Roxzone was notably slower, suggesting room for improvement in transitions.
In terms of pacing, Sam started somewhat slowly, as evidenced by his Running 1 segment being 00:35 slower than average. However, his pacing improved significantly in subsequent running segments, with consistent times faster than average. This suggests that while he has a strong running capability, his initial pacing strategy might need adjustment.
