So I was totally petrified of starting W2! But just done it 😝 found the first rep ok but come to second rep and 😫 omg that was yuck! Recovered ok then went on to do 3 and 4 comfortably. Then 5 .... 😀 yuck again! But carried on recovered! Rep 6 I just wanted to carry on I felt great. Isn’t that strange!

So going it not quite as scary as I thought just need to keep focused and not go too quick.

Banana 🍌 and a coffee β˜•οΈ now then nice cool shower then off to work ! Thought I’d get this done now as I think it will be so hot this evening when I finish.

Have a gorgeous Sunday 😘
