    As it wasn't posted here I had no idea we had been set challenges and will not be gaining many pound advantage unless I have a very busy evening!!

    Oh - I was so busy last week, I didn't miss the new challenge, and I didn't think to look into the other thread...
    Hmm, 1, 2 and 5 is okay, but 3 and 4 is a problem...

    Sorry for the delay, everyone. The holiday weekend got me off schedule. Anyway, there is only one challenge this week, the fitness test! Let's see how much we've improved in the last 9 weeks!

    1) Complete a 1-mile walk test or 1.5 miles run test
    2) Count how many push-ups, crunches, and burpees you can do in one minute
    3) Count how long you can hold a plank position

    Good luck everyone!

    Okay, fitness test:

    1) Complete a 1-mile walk test: average sspeed is 6 km per hour (3.72 miles)
    2) Count how many push-ups, crunches, and burpees you can do in one minute:
    push-ups: 18
    crunches: 30
    burpees: 9
    3) Count how long you can hold a plank position: 28 seconds

    So, in some things I am better than in week 9, in others not so good...

    Well, generally, I liked this challenge, it is just a pity that it so many have left before! I did not lose much weight, but who knows without the challenge I perhaps would have gotten so frustrated with not losing that I had given up and gained instead? In the last two weeks the weight has been getting down, not by much, but it was a loos in two consecutive weeks, so I hope I am on the way to losing again!

    Take care everybody and good luck!
