5x5 Race thread!

Round 20
Race to sub 3:30
3:17.87
(3:37.39), 3:25.59, 3:24.76, 3:03.26, (2:51.40)

Missed a few rounds and I haven't touched my 5x5 in a month. My first few solves were a bit rusty but then I got the hang of things and shattered my old PB single. Sub 3:00!!! Came close to my avg5 PB as well.

I wish I had time for an average of 12. I feel like I'm just getting warmed up and I could set some more PB's. Maybe if I have time later today I'll finish the 12 and update my average.

Round 21: Race to sub-2.

15 seconds better than last average :D .Too bad there was those 2 or 3 really bad solves though, I just couldn't find the edges I was looking for during edge pairing and I also messed up the centers...
 
Round 22

Race to Sub 3:00

3:09.02

(2:37.50), 3:10.48, 3:01.08, (3:30.65), 3:15.51

That first solve was magical, obliterated my PB single. I need to find that magic consistently. Edge pairing seems to make or break me, gotta work on looking ahead. Popped on that 3:30...
