Donkey Kong Country Returns - 8-K Five Monkey Trial: 1:44.46 IL Run (Shiny Gold)
Not much in the way of optimization here. It's mostly about collecting the last coin quickly in Trial 2 and quickly climbing Trial 3. If you're insane you can make a cycle in the middle, but left side is definitely more reasonable for IL Standards.
Of note, you can use your one spare heart to get crushed by the final pillar with the coin in Trial 2 and collect it instantly, but it's actually very hard to avoid the final wave in Trial 5, so I just save it for there.
