I can't believe I'm still doing push ups. My initial goal was to finish the challenge by the end of summer, which is two short weeks away, my friends. Unless I start snorting spinach like Popeye with similar results, this ain't happening in two weeks.A few days ago I did an exhaustion test and did 55 push ups. Which is great, I'm not going to knock it. I've improved from 24 in the beginning. But good grief, some days- like today- I feel like this is never going to happen. I am still wondering if women were meant to do push ups, feminism be darned.
But alas, I shall persevere!
In better news, 2 of my friends also doing the push up challenge finished! Congrats MM and BB!
And for the record, I did bail on the sit ups. I started running at the beginning of August, and the sit ups and running were aggravating each other, so I went with the cardio.
Feel free to leave encouragement. If you can't find me some day, I'm probably collapsed on my yoga mat from death by push up.

I think it's fantastic that you're sticking with it! Fifty-five is great. On a side note, Brian was terribly disappointed as a child when he realized that eating spinach wouldn't give him muscles like Popeye. He was so disillusioned, it wasn't until recently that he started eating spinach again.
