My PB looked like it was tas maybe because I had to do a backwards jump to slow down faster to enter the pipe faster, kinda like the super mario bros. 1-1 underground, and the fast grabs.

This run took me 45 minutes to achieve. The run is at 45:29

I was also using Nestopia. If you click out, the game pauses. Theres an option to resume the game even if you click out but I couldnt find the option. Also, you can't tas in nestopia. I even showed the options in the end of the PB video. only Bizhawk and FCEUX are emulators that have a tas editor.
