Well done. Its such a buzz and it feels like progress towards becoming a runner. I've just done W6R1 now, it was fine, and I dont understand why so many posts mention this one as being tricky. But I'm sure to find a run thats gonna mess with my head soon. Good luck and keep smiling :-)

Magnificent OL! You completed the landmark run and totally smashed it! Congratulate your snail - helpful little fellow. πŸŒπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜€

You know all about W6 don’t you? If not, respect the first two seemingly easy runs. They pack a punch! You’ll need your 🐌again!

You’re well on your way and you should be proud as anything! πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸ’ͺπŸ‘πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸŒ
