You were right the whole problem was with me being fair weather bird. Once i changed out speedy recovery for super sprint that negated weather/terrain I was able to beat it no problem even with low cunning. The race really does favor foul weather birds, esp tranquil with all the swamp you run through despite it being sunny weather.
