Sunday’s Mammoth Training Session…RIP (Rest In Pieces!)
19/06/2016This Picture just about sums up how I feel right now…
Wowzaaa! I’m destroyed, i’m struggling to stop my arms from shaking. I thought I was going to collapse in Tesco as my blood sugar levels came crashing down like a gargantuan wave hitting the coastal rocks. The session i’ve just completed was actually a little too much (putting it mildly!) but sometimes I like to set myself a ridiculous challenge and test my mental fortitude, even if it’s a little silly! Anyhow here it is… all 66 sets of it!
