During the summer holidays, I competed in a Rubik’s cube competition in Pukekohe. This competition was held under the World Cube Association rules. In my favourite event, the 4x4x4 cube, I broke the female world record with an average time of 27.84 seconds. This was also the overall NZ National record. I also broke the National record for the single fastest solve, with a time of 24.97 seconds.

My goal for the year ahead is to compete in a few more competitions and improve my times for the cubes from 4×4 to 7×7.
