  It's just NOT right!

Well well... Here we are - finally - at 250 push ups!  It's been an amazing exercise in will power, but the physical effort and beneficial results - including the severely calloused knuckles - are something I can take pride in...  With this final 250 push ups today, we completed 1,580 for this week and an astounding 6,400 push ups in total, if my count is right, over the last 7 weeks!  August 25th was our start date and October 13th our finish.

So today's count is 200 push-ups...  I can honestly tell you that at this point it is a grind.  I'm doing 8 reps of 25 to get there and have two more reps to do as soon as I finish this posting.  Jeremy, one of the big, young bucks at Koguma Dojo told me last night in class that he is banging out the whole count in approximately 30 minutes each morning!  But then (I'm guessing) Jeremy is in his late 20's, early 30's, and I'm just shy of 60, so reps of 25 works for me.  ...
