my plateaus are all self inflicted by too much food. i will ring the man who sells maori potatoes for a laugh to see if he has any left but i really am not sure i need potatoes. i am like the chick in the marathon running on fat thread. i cant carb refeed as it makes me want to keep carb feeding. disciplinewise i prob could just eat potatoes if i could still have my coffee but i would worry what would happen to me when i stopped.

ok so here is my accountable post from the morning after the night before comment - I am gonna up the exersize !!!!!

Went for a 3.5 km run/walk this morning, how path-et-tic is that !!!!!!! but that is how far I went and so, I suppose it is a beginning. I must admit that the last time I ran this distance (1 year ago) I was slower than this morning !!!! Then I was fit eating crap, and now I am unfit, 8kg lighter, and eating very clean !!!!
anyhoo I am rambling. Off to do a couple of strength exersizes and "THE PLANK"

catch you all later
G, x

Really really sad that this old Gwamma can only do a 1 minute plank. I suppose it is something to begin with, and i can only get stronger and hold it for longer - we shall work on it !!!!

Ugh, I hate the plank! I can barely manage 1 minute without looking like I'm having a seizure. My abdo muscles have all separated since having the kids, so I get that real attractive pyramid thing going on when I do situps. I really need to work on mine too - perhaps we should have a 'plank off'? LOL that sounds way ruder than it ought to!

Hey 3.5km is way better than none - and thats exactly what I did yesturday.

Thanx LizzieLou - a plank off sounds just like the ticket !!!! However if Misabi is gonna be part of the challenge, we need some rules cos he will already have hard-as testosterone induced ones !!!!! LOL

so count me in !!!!
Should we do it week by week ????? or a one month challenge or ???.... guidance please

[Lizzielou]

I'm thinking that we'd have to do 'the biggest increase in planking time' to make it fair for our testosterone enhanced friends. We could do weekly time-ins to chart our progress and then after say a month(?) we can declare a winner.

fantastic - I am up for it !!!!!!!
starting this week ?????
calling all our Kiwi buddies, and any other plank-offs - the challenge is about to begin.
actually Lizzie lou, praps I should start a whole thread ????

[Lizzielou]

Oh the shame.....

It would be interesting to see how many other takers we can find.

[NZ primal Gwamma]

okey dokey - I shall get it started NOW !!!!!

Do you know what a thread killer is Gwamma? hint hint lmao i so hate planks! i am gonna pretend i havent seen this. change the subject. but before i do that. check this out
20 Core Shredding Plank Variations - YouTube i reckon the only way to plank is to distract yourself while you are doing it so as you dont watch the clock. i also like renegade rows far better.
i havent run anywhere today. mob handed and overrun but heading down the back straight. 4 days to go. i did have a swift sprint up the hydroslide a few times this morning and then swum 600m or so. but that doesnt really count.
anyone on here potatoing yet? i just prefer fish right now and cant face those horrid white supermarket potatoes at the best of times. let alone to the exclusion of anything else.
