100 Push Up Challenge



Ok first off....I am sorry for the very personal post last night. I probably did not need to share my medical issues like I did. But with me getting old (yes 28yrs is old when you notice you can't eat anything you want without gaining weight!!) there are tough decisions to be made that affect me, my future, my running and my body. it also is a tougher decision than most due to the fact I am one medicine for seizures and I have to watch what other meds I take. So anyways....that decision has been made and we will see where it takes me. Hopefully to a stronger body that can start to tone up again!



So on that note I did my initial test last night for the 100 Push Up Challenge. I had Bri watch like I promised. Well.....he is a tough coach! I got 6 in before he said I was doing them wrong and to put my booty down! So he got down and showed me where my arms are supposed to be.





OUCH!! I had them about 12 inches out in front of me and I knew it was wrong but I could not do many with them right under me. So he said I only got about 6-10 done correctly. So I will be starting in rank 2. Not very impressive. But I want to be able to do them correctly at the end of this. I also want to do them when he is around at the beginning to make sure I am keeping the form right.


Hoping to get an easy short run in today. My ankles are finally calming down and the shin pain is minimal! :)


Off to the real world of work and more assessments assessments assessments. I love data because it shows how hard these kids worked all year!!! :)
