I am 30 and just started speedsolving about 3 weeks ago, so I just have some general goals:
- Sub 30s 3x3 (current pb is 38s)
- Sub 20s 3x3 (depending on when/if I meet the first goal)
- Sub 90s 4x4

And that's it. I don't really care about any other puzzles except maybe 5x5 and pyraminx, but not really interested in speedsolving either of those. 2x2 is just too fast for my tastes, although I'm going to learn Ortega at some point just for fun.

Learn M2 Yes
Get an offical 3BLD solve No. Trying again on Saturday

Nothing too taxing if I can find some practice time. and here lies the problem

5x5: sub-2, sub-1:50 single

2x2: sub-4 avg (3.89), no sub-3 single (3.08 was best), got to finals and placed 6th
3x3: sub-14 avg (13.89), no sub-10, sub got two 10.x singles (10.28 was best, Y perm ruined it), got to finals and placed 6th
4x4: screwed up everything, no goals were achieved
5x5: used Hoya for no reason causing me to be slow, no goals were achieved

Super happy with the comp, but two plus-2s in one average cost me a sub-13 ao5 :( Oh well

If you have a 10.0x average of 50 on 3x3, why would you have a goal of sub 14?
 
Goals:

3x3: learn the rest of pll and consistently get sub 20 average.
4x4: consistently get sub 1:10
5x5: get sub 3:00 every time

Deadline: 13th march
