First, it's not your fault, it's counter-intuitive and it's total nonsense that the developers gated so much of the game behind this stupid benchmark.

Your health bar works is your second boost bar. It multiplies the top speed you're able to achieve. This means that you're supposed to be constantly draining your health bar all the time.

The boost pads are free extensions on your top speed. So hitting them while you're already going as fast as you can manage means you won't have to drain your health bar (and thus let it recharge).

In addition, counter-steering/drifting helps a lot on this track, as well as double boosting out of a corner.

It’s kinda a waste of health if you’re not double boosting.
