Goal: Sub-22

Comment: Started well, especially liking #2 where the first block was pre-built after completing EOLine; but then hit a very slow F2L on #5 where I just couldn't see anything, and messed up the G-perm on #9, putting paid to my chances of beating my goal for the 2nd week.

Goal: Sub-17

Average of 12: 15.15
(Green is the best solve and Red is the worst solve)

Comment: I can't believe it. A 15.15 average with good singles in-between! many sub-15 second solves! Next week, I'm going for sub-16. This is actually my PB average of 12! My PB before was a 15.87, so a decrease of 0.72 seconds!

Comment: I'm Happy with a Sub 12 Average, not that's not my Main Goal. My Main Goal is Sub 12.5. Also, Counting 9 wtf

I only work with 0.5 seconds beneath 10 seconds. So I'll be counting this as a sub 12 average.
