I did it! I successfully completed the 30 day plank challenge, and on my birthday no less! And what a good feeling that is. When I first started this challenge, I thought I’d never be able to hold the plank for 5 minutes. My body, very clearly, proved me wrong. This was probably the toughest challenge for me yet, but also the most rewarding. I encourage everyone to try it, even if you can’t make the full 30 days, go ahead and challenge yourself anyways. You might be surprised with how far you get; I sure was. For my next challenge, I’m thinking of trying the 30 abs challenge, and you know I’ll be updating you on my progress and encouraging all of you to try it!

I told Joscelynn this morning that being fit and healthy is a lifestyle, and one that I choose to continue even without her being in Florida with me. It’s tough not having that constant motivation, but I’m doing my best to motivate myself and to become the strongest, healthiest, most fit person I possibly can.

Sending my love to each and every one of you!
