|  100 Push Up Challenge! Unca started this challenge last time and I joined in on the challenge. Don't know if he ever completed it but I know that I got to the beginning of the 3rd week and kind of let the stresses of school take over and became lazy and forgot about the challenge. Now that winter break is almost here I'm going to start it again. The ULTIMATE goal of the challenge is to do 100 Push Ups! You start with the initial test (seeing how many push ups you can do without stopping). Then the chart on the initial test will determine what week/push number you will start on. All of the info you need is on this site: one hundred push ups I'm going to start my initial test tomorrow.  Anyone want to join the challenge? | ||||||||||||||||||||

| Man, pushups are my true enemy. I'm not even close to kidding! I can give it a shot, but my upper body is SO weak. Bring on anything that has to do with legs, but my arms are like overcooked spaghetti! Let me go check out that link .......

| Ok, I'm in! I'll start tomorrow and do the Mon-Wed-Fri as suggested. I already know I'm totally at the lowest level. I don't think I'm going to register though. I'll just do it myself. Who else is in? Oh Josh, where are youuuuuuuuu?

| LOL. That would be cool. You never know, Superdave is a pretty groovy dude... he may be able to create an awesome Push Up Medal if we complete. But also on that website that have little badges that you can copy page the image onto profiles and stuff when you complete the challenge so we could always flash are push up badges in out signatures. | ||||||||||||||||||||
