Round 56 - Sub 2:00

Average - 1:52.57

Times
1:54.88, 1:45.04, 1:43.37, 2:02.21, 2:06.50, 1:44.54, 1:37.61, 2:01.58, 1:46.69, 2:02.98, 2:00.90, 1:43.47

This round didn't feel as good as the last one, because of all the sup-2:00 solves. But it was a better average and now I have graduated from sub-2:00.

Round-56
Goal: sub-60

1:08.65, 54.62, 1:00.76, 1:11.04, 1:01.01, (DNF), 1:08.61, 56.90, 1:11.01, 57.57, 1:00.63, (53.03) = 1:03.08
DNF was me being stupid and not remembering single parity flip, 4 times above 1:08 :S not good at all.
Avg is not good either my best avg of 100 is better than 1:03.
More practice!

Not bad considering I haven't done much 4x4 recently

Round 56 = 1:06.43
1:00.24, 1:13.87, 1:07.66, 1:08.99, 1:13.62, 1:02.90, 1:03.81, 1:08.52, 59.12, 1:05.61, (55.33), (1:15.52)

Getting sub-1 is still not as frequent as I would like to... but at least I'm doing less sup-1:10 (beurk those).
I also did a breakdown avg of 12 yesterday to practice : 14.65s for centers, 25.44s for pairing and 29.52s for 333. I really should start practicing 333 a bit more
