Clock · top 48.7% of 32,048 all-time · competing since December 2023 · 2023TIMM04

Karena Timmons has been competing for 3 years. Her best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 15.20, set at Re-Laois the Cubers 2025, puts her in the top 48.7% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 171st in Ireland. Across 11 competitions since December 2023, she has put 64 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 86% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 5 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 48.63 in December 2023 to 36.16, a 26% improvement. Karena has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
