    Pulled my back doing heavy housework. Bowing out--no planks for awhile. Will try again if another challenge comes up.

    Yesterday was an unplanned rest day - my daughter and 2 grandchildren came down and stayed overnight, always very tiring!

    However I did 3 minutes on Sat 27th so I will make the 60 minute goal.

    November's challenge is up!

    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10704425/60-minutes-per-month-plank-challenge-november-2018/

    Hope everyone here re-joins for November. It's the holiday season, even more reason for us to stay in shape. Remember, no judgement, if time is going to be a factor, reduce your goal or change it up a bit. The point is to keep trying!

    See you all there!

    28/10 unplanned rest day.
    29/10 1 x 60s forearms + 60s straight arms + + 2 x 30s side planks = 3 mins
    30/10 ditto 3 mins
    31/10 ditto 3 mins
    Total 68.5
    Goal achieved and exceeded!

    Once I got into it I managed 3 mins almost every day so I'll set a slightly higher goal for November

    Thanks for the challenge!
