Well, set off today quite nervous but trusted what I was told and had read in a previous post about being able to maintain fitness for 2ish weeks and, maybe because of the stretches I've been doing, found this one the easiest 25 minutes yet! Hoping things will only get easier from here and I'll now be able to complete the remaining weeks pain-free...
