Use this test for fast benchmarking

One minute is a strong signal for speed and error control when repeated under the same conditions. If your goal is a quick improvement cycle, keep the passage short and the setup consistent.

Why shorter tests are useful

Short runs are easy to fit into a work break or practice routine. They reveal how clean your first 60 seconds are and help you track progress without committing to a longer endurance session.

Next steps after benchmarking
