I started running this category February 19th or 20th of 2020. At that point, I had barely been speedrunning Minecraft for 1 year.
March 1st, 2020 - I achieved a 3:29.200. The world record at the time was 3:11.100 by Crafterdark. It could have been WR, but whatever
March 14th - I achieve a 3:17.050. Still 2nd place, and by this point, Crafterdark had achieved a 2:46. So, the first sub 3 was off the table for me. But I was fine with that.
March 24th - I get 2.55.200. Of course, its still 2nd place, but it was sub 3. I was very happy about this run, but it still wasnt WR of course.
April 13th - 2:42.550. World record. I was unbelievably happy about this, it was the first WR I had ever gotten, and I couldnt have been more excited. It wasnt a good run by any means, but a WR is a WR.
May 30th - 2:24.150. New WR Again. This run was quite a bit better than the 2:42. I was happy with the run itself, but I still wanted to improve it.
August 6th - 2:22.800. Lol
August 25th - 2:12.300. Good time
September 20th - 2:03.600. This run was incredible. My first 3 hit endfight ever, was played pretty well, and was very lucky. And this run proved hard to beat.
I continued running this category until mid-January of 2021, but I started to lose motivation. My 2:03 would have actually been a sub 2 if it werent for some seeds, so that fact kinda eventually got to me. So I sat on this category for a while, even making an April Fools joke using it in April of 2021, where I completed the game in 1:57.250. Funnily enough, that joke run ended up being slower than the one this description is under.
As the MCSR grew massively over the following years, I didnt consider returning to SSP often. I moved onto other categories, despite people asking if/when I would ever get sub 2. I had tried playing the category again a couple of times over the next two years, but I didnt get much enjoyment out of it. So I wouldnt pursue a better time.
This changed near the end of 2022. I saw nsla (a fellow runner) doing SS runs in a vc, which is basically just SSP. This made me want to try SSP again, so I did. I went ahead and played it, and I had a lot of fun. I got some good paces, and finished a couple good runs. The next day, I played it again. I continued playing this category almost every day, because I was enjoying it. And, I wanted to get sub 2. More so, I wanted to finally fulfill the promise I had made to many back in the day, that I would get sub 2. Specifically for someone named MerciArsene. They were extremely determined with asking me if I would ever get sub 2, for quite a long time. They had been there watching me grind the category back in the day, so I thought it would be cool/funny to surprise them with a sub 2. And well, I did it. Directly after losing a slightly slower sub 2 to a bad charge, I got it. Im so glad to have finally pulled this off after almost 3 years since I started running the category.
Now, about this run. It wasnt even that good. Bad overworld with a lot of mistakes, but with a lucky spawn, lucky cleric position, and first try flint. I threw it hard tho lol. The end enter wasnt anything too impressive, and the endfight was even a 4 hit. But hey, it was good enough for a sub 2. And Im happy about that.
Now, will I try to improve this run? Maybe, well see. I guess time will tell.

it took over 3 years, but I finally got an RSG WR. The grind definitely paid off.
I want to thank a few people here who inspired me throughout my 1.7 journey
whatevermarco - Got me to run 1.7 and did a little backseating. Even if he isnt in the community anymore, he was a huge inspiration to me.
bitsbyalyx - A very good friend in my early 1.7 days. Even if she is also no longer very active in the community, I would like to thank her nonetheless.
Infume - Him getting sub 20 got me back into running the category after a long break due to demotivation.
Everyone from the UR SAD friend group server - This server has been dead for months, however, everyone here kept me going in my early pre-1.9 days.
Everyone from the Pre-1.9 Discord - I appreciate everyone in this server, and without the people there, I wouldnt still be running the category.
Everyone from the Furry MCSR server - Im glad to have a place to just chill with friends while doing runs, you all kept me going when I wasnt sure if I wanted to keep running 1.7.
Teddiursa - Teddi getting 19:19 made me wake up and realize I couldnt sleep on 1.7 anymore, so I started to grind again.
M4xx - After a dip in motivation, M4xx getting 19:26 brought it back.
Spinnaker - Spin getting 18:53 made me start the true grind. I decided that I would play the game as much as I can until I got WR. And lo and behold, it only took a few days.
Chaos - You develop so many crazy strats, one of which that is pretty new is OBT V2 (the tower). It was first used in Spins 18:53, and now this run. And of course Chaos End Strats. I only had 8 arrows in this run, so chaos strats were ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. This run probably wouldnt have finished without them.
My twitch viewers - Thank you everyone for watching me while I grinded 1.7, having some people to chat with was a huge motivator and made the grind much more fun.
and finally, all the believers - Thank you to everyone who believed in me. Honestly, even after my 20:04, I doubted I would ever get WR. But having people who believed in me kept me going. Because honestly, I didnt even believe in myself.
This run brings my combined RSG down to 51:16. I will be going for sub 50, likely by improving my 1.15 PB (I only need sub 18:30)
And finally, the music list is ripped straight from Cscuiles 23:04 FWR. I thought it was fitting. The songs are all from the A Hat in Time OST. Listed here (in order of appearance):
A Hat in Time OST [Nyakuza Metro] - Rush Hour
A Hat in Time OST - The Big Challenge
A Hat in Time OST - Alpine Skyline at Night
A Hat in Time OST - Toilet Of Doom
A Hat in Time OST - 66 Scootin Through Clocktowers Beneath The Sea

![[WR] Reaching the Minecraft World Border in 39 Seconds](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tgnoBkzZNSw/mqdefault.jpg "[WR] Reaching the Minecraft World Border in 39 Seconds
Heres an even faster run than the last one. Thanks to @Eliotex for finding this new seed, which allows for us to unlink the nether portal from the overworld portal without building a new one (saves ~10 seconds). With better terrain to the border as well!

For an explanation of how this works, check out Crafterdarks original video: https://youtu.be/7xAobZsYBiI?si=Mh9jU_nUV8Gi2rOg
He is the one who discovered this insane glitch
Final time: 39.864
37.xx is probably possible, maybe even a little faster (sub 35 likely possible with TAS?). I lost a couple seconds on the portal build, and had slightly suboptimal movement getting to the border (probably lost less than a second)
Also, this is specific to reaching the corner far lands. It would save some time to go to the edge.
