This was the most phenomenal speedrun I will ever perform. This came directly on the heels of a sub-37 pace featuring fast6 that died in 6-7 post-enemies. I tilted hard, then sat back down and got to work.

Area 1: Missed the manip, wasn't playing that seriously, but still a respectable time. Prior WR was gold for non-manip, so losing just 20 seconds is very acceptable. Area 2: Sub-5 in a WR run. Finally. Area 3: Not great 3-3, but solid play in the rest of the world redeemed it. Area 4: The run I lost earlier today started to fall apart here, losing a minute. I golded 4 despite the ridiculous ending to 4-8. Area 5: Nearly as impressive as my All Items 5. Golded. Area 6: As fast as I've ever played Area 6 without fast6. Golded.

My SOB before this run was 34:38.6. Yes, after thousands of attempts, everything all came together and I beat my sum of bests. I am in shock. My any% grind is finally over. My goal was sub37, so I am thrilled that this actually happened. I am still in disbelief.

Massive credit to everyone who supported me on this journey over the past 11 months. You know who you all are, and you are amazing. I wouldn't have achieved this without you.
