Nerd Pushups – Hardest Day Yet

Week 3 Day 1      2010-01-25
Max in last set: 10 + 7
Notes:
12-17-13-13-17

Be it the number of pushups or my condition today, this was a very hard day.

A total of 72 pushups today.  Sets 3 and 4 were doable but disheartening as they were extremely difficult this morning.  I managed them but only barely.  This still left me an additional set of 17 to pull out of the hat.

Sadly, I didn’t make the last 17 consecutively.  After 10 I just had nothing left and I couldn’t have possible done 7 more.  That being said, I did finish the additional 7 after another 60 second break as I didn’t want to be completely beaten.  At the end I collapsed in a heap.   A heap that didn’t win the race, but completed it against all odds.

I can live with that.

Taking the day off work today.  9am physical, then off to the gym for a 40 minute run or so….
