One Hundred Push-Ups


A fellow runner sent me a link to the 100 push-up challenge site. I had been trying to do 100 push-ups since mid May and plateaued around 45.

My interest is elevated now that I can't run until July 29, 2008 and have gained nearly 10 pounds since mileage terminated.

I just took the "initial test" and hit 42 which places me in the middle of level 4. The goal is to be able to do 100 push-ups in 6 weeks (deadline 16Aug2008). Hopefully this will make me a stronger runner as well (when I begin to run again).

goal: 100 consecutive push-ups by 16Aug2008

I did Day 1 of Week 1 yesterday. For now, I'm going to see if the general structure of the program will help build my strength in other areas, too.
