    The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

      I'm not sure you can do it from the beginning though. You can skip some by hovering over them if you come off something a bit higher than the ennemy (platform, boulder...) or by double jumping when you get the ability, but I don't think the earliest stages are designed to be able to jump over them.

    I bet speedruners set their pull strength really low at the start by pulling very lightly so that for the speedrun, it will be faster
