The data presented here was not from my son Peyton, but was from a friend of ours who ran in the open race at NXN. His performance was equivalent to the slowest boys who typically run at NXN. The visualization that I originally posted is a way for people to better understand my #XC_Sabermetrics calculations. I usually get feedback that people cannot understand my graphs, so my purpose was to make something that anyone could understand. I LOVE cross country, and I hope to help runners and fans better understand the complexities of cross country running performances. Thanks so much for posting this Pat!
It's a very versatile tool! Even with sequencing data, I've used animations. My subfield makes a lot of ordination plots. If time is a variable, I enjoy animating those plots to show how communities are changing with time. Maybe not for a paper, but it definitely adds some "splash" for presentations
Great videos! However, I get a bit disoriented with you moving your video back and forth to show the plots. I would prefer if you put the video of your face a bit smaller in the corner, it should be less work for you as well.
Pat, you make things look so simple. Thanks for all you have taught me over the years! Also, thanks for doing a video on this. :)
My pleasure - it was a lot of fun!

wonderful - it's awesome that you're trying to make understanding the data more accessible to others!
It is so amazing to see what you can do with ggplot. I am use to work with the typical data from sequencing and this is incredible.

wonderful video, merry christmas :)
thanks - right back at you - have a great Christmas!
wow, so nice!
Thanks for watching! 🤓
Thanks Pat for this funny animation ! What about using plotly and subplot?
My pleasure - thanks for watching! I'm sure there are other ways to do it, I just happened to know gganimate and a little magick 🤓
Wicked cool
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 🤓
Happy New Year!
Right back at you - hope 2025 is great for you!

Thanks for watching and for the feedback
It must be -zj-if because obviously everyone says -zj-raphics interchange format 😁😁
lol - i love it! 🤓 thanks for watching
