One Hundred Push Ups Challenge

Stephanie and I are trying to get through the hundred push ups training program. We just started, so I'm posting this as a motivator. In about 6 weeks from now, we both hope to be able to complete the challenge and do 100 consecutive push ups. Just for fun, I'm going to log our daily progress and keep track of how many push ups we do over the challenge.

After a weekend of skydiving, Stephanie and I weren't able to make the 100 push-ups at the end of week 6, so we will repeat week 6 and try again until we get there.

Woo-hoo! It took a little longer than the 6 weeks, but I was able to complete the challenge with 105 consecutive pushups! Steph has been sick and sore lately, and will take a week or so off before getting back into the program.
