In order to get the Trophy, you will have to clear the level Prologue under par time. To access the section for these trophies, You will have had to beat the game atleast once, and then you can find it under the Race section from the main menu.
You will need to clear this level in under 3 minutes. Below I have added a video, showing you what route I took.
I also have added another video under there showing a very usefull trick called Side Jump boosting. Its where Faith, will gain maximum speed, from taking a side step and then turning a 90 degree angle. Very useful when you to go fast around corners, or over a longer stretch.
I take no credit for these videos, all credit goes to Ovendonkey on Youtube (for the Side Jump boost) And the chapter video was recorded by myself.
With this video, I was able to get the trophy on my second try. With some practice you should be able to get this trophy fairly easily, as the level is rather short.
My final time was 2:13:17

Complete the game to unlock this Speedrun. You must complete the level in under 3 minutes. Below is a video demonstrating how to complete it, courtesy of watuhboy.
General Speedrun Tips:
- Learn the level: Obviously, knowing where to go and how to progress in each area is the first step to completing these Speedruns under the required time.
- Pause when waiting for doors to open: In several chapters, you'll have to wait for doors to open. The reason you have to wait is because the game is loading in the background. If you pause for 10-15 seconds when this is happening, the doors will automatically open when you unpause, saving you precious seconds. This is most notable in Chapter 2 with the gate, and Chapter 9 with the elevator.
- Practice makes perfect: Some of the faster methods for tackling certain sections can be difficult to do, so it is advised you practice these techniques and areas beforehand so that you don't make a mistake during the real thing.
- Use Time Trials to test each area: The Time Trials are generally the most complex sections of the respective chapters. Because of this, you can learn how to complete these areas via the Time Trials, then take that knowledge into your Speedruns to result in faster times.
-
Use Reaction Time for hard sections: Some parts can be difficult to do in quick succession, so utilise Reaction Time with
to allow you to complete the part easily and without error. - Coil jumping is your friend: When running, you will maintain a higher speed if you constantly coil jump as you run. While the difference is only 1 or 2 mph, over a whole chapter, the time will add up.
- Side jump boost: While not at all mandatory, learning how to side jump boost can help shave off more time. Please see the below video for how to side jump boost, courtesy of overdonkey186.
