It has been done! Last minute barrier I'm willing to get and probably (not) the last time I'm going to be running this category. I know better Victoria and Viridian splits can push the time into the low 10's, like 10:1X to be realistic.

10:46.033 retimed

Analysis:
Perfect first three splits, 5:0X tower split is the limit. Only about 3 more seconds of time save there.
Lost quite a bit of time on lab and final, say 5 seconds on lab and 15 seconds on final.
Also 5 more seconds of time save in warp zone.
That adds up to a 10:1X time.

Update 11/19:
I had an amazing back half of a run during my 48:07 full series run. Adding up the front half of this and the back half of the other run gives 10:15.
Maybe I might go back to trying for a sub 10:30.

Update 11/22:
I got a new PB of 10:45.933, beating my old one by exactly a tenth of a second. It fell 15 seconds behind exiting tower and then got a 16 second gold in lab, pulling me 10 seconds ahead. Minus 15 seconds heading into final, I choked so much (30 seconds lost total). Unfortunately, my recording glitched. Didn't matter anyway, I'm going to grind for a 10:2X.
