A running coach wanted to see whether runners ran faster after eating spaghetti the night before. A group of six runners was randomly chosen for this study. Each ran a 5 kilometer race after having a normal dinner the night before, and then a week later, reran the same race after having a spaghetti dinner the night before. The times for their races are shown in the table below. What test statistic should be used in a test for these samples?
