Al...most...there...!!!

Well, I am coming up on my year long goal of 52,000 push ups.  Currently I am at 49,901 or 95.96% of the way there, about two weeks to go.  It's been interesting trying to make sure I hit my weekly quota throughout the year, with trips, sickness, oversleeping, general lethargy types of things getting in the way.  But, I always made sure I tried to plan a head (like when I got the family snip) or catch up (like when I had the flu).   Overall, it's been a fun experience.  Now I am starting to think about what to do for the next year.  Right now I am starting to pick up more and more on pull ups.  I do 200 a week (100 on two different days).  So there might be something there.  Haven't decided on what yet.

Aside from just the push ups, I am planning on completing 2 half marathons this summer.  My goal is to finish at 7:45 per mile or better. I am hoping to get into the top 10% for all runners and in the top 20% for the men's group.  In addition to all that I am hoping to do the Super race for the Spartan race this summer.  Then next year I'll need to do the beast to complete the trifecta.  Then I will have a super cool medal!  Woohoo!!!

Lastly, I have picked up a new addition in my work outs, hitting the heavy bag.  I do it twice a week for 45 minutes each time.  Full sweats and go for the whole time.  Makes for some good sweat!  Also, helps augment some running and gives my knee a rest.

Well that's the brief update for this time.  I'll report back on the finish!  Go Bucky!!!
