It's a tough one! Not on paper, but in practice it catches a lot of people out. It's all about the expectation. We approach w5r3 with caution - as we should all runs in this program - but by w6r1 we feel invincible 😀.

But you did it and it's in the bag! Well done! Remember, treat every run with caution, slow and steady, and enjoy 👍

Not what you're looking for?
