    I upped mine month after month until I hit 180. That seems to be my max. There are months I can exceed it, but generally it's a tough number to beat especially on the short months! Good work!

    Woo Hoo.
    Here is to finishing strong. Managed still to do 60 sec plank every day except one - pretty happy about that. Next month 2 X planks a day.
