The Red Trail Is a Lie
Runner’s Vision is an incredibly useful tool for discerning which path you should take and how you are able to get to a general area. What it’s not great for is showing you the fastest path to the finish line in any time trial, as it seems to usually take you along a far slower route. See, for these time trials it doesn’t matter how you get to the end, all that matters is that you reach it. This will allow you to go off the beaten path and explore other ways to reach the finish line.
This is arguably the single most important factor when it comes to shaving down your time. There are a lot of paths and places to run in Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, so finding the best one is key. Once you have a general idea where the exit is located, try working your way to it in various different ways. Much like the first tip, take your time and explore a variety of different ways to reach one area, as some may be far faster than you previously thought.
