Simple riddles and logic tests are usually the ones that turn out to be the hardest.
Our brains are programmed to come up with an answer as soon as possible when confronted with a puzzling question or situation. While this can often help us out, it may sometimes lead us astray. As wise people say, it is always better to take your time and think twice before saying anything!
With that thought in mind, let’s get straight to our riddles!
In the first challenge, imagine that you are a runner who joined a marathon. During the race, you pass the second runner. Which position are you in after passing the second runner?
