Don’t Rush Through At First
Yes, the name of the game here is speed, but sometimes that’s not always the best option. Don’t try to beat the clock your first time through, as usually the path is incredibly complicated and requires a variety of moves to traverse. Just trying to rush through it will surely just end in frustration, since many of these time trials are fairly specific with where you need to go.
When walking explore the race’s path and make sure to practice your techniques again and again. A single failed jump could force you to reset the entire ordeal, so having the movements down to a muscle memory is incredibly important. Make sure to plan your route accordingly and practice different ways to clamor through certain areas. Sometimes the game will tell you to simply jump over a fence when wall running past it is way more efficient.
