Colleen Kenney

2×2 · top 89.5% of 186,767 all-time · competing since April 2011 · 2011KENN01

Colleen Kenney has been competing for 15 years. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 14.36, set at MIT Spring 2016, puts her in the top 89.5% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 37,182nd in the United States. Across 6 competitions since April 2011, she has put 44 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 4 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 1:18.00 in April 2011 to 57.53, a 26% improvement. Colleen has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
