After getting yesterday off, I did a minute and a half again today. A minute and a half is hard. I'm really curious how the next week is going to go.

Today I'm at the red dot. Tomorrow, I'll be half way through the challenge, but as you can see, the real work hasn't even begun yet. I should stop scrutinizing this before I psych myself out.

I don't see exactly where the beer or the pepperoni come in.

I bumped up to two minutes today. And I did it. It was hard, but I did it and probably could have gone a bit longer.

It just may be that whoever designed this challenge knows what they are doing. No way could I have done two minutes when I started two weeks ago.

I am the bottom of the curve in this exercise, the less than 5th percentile. Does starting over multiple times count?

One thing in which I have persisted: I am sticking to my diet and have lost 8 lb in just under 2 weeks. Hooray! And I'm exercising, honestly - just keep forgetting to do the damned plank.

2.5 minutes.

There's getting to be a cardio component to this now. I'm breathing pretty hard by the end of the plank.
