Day 3 of week 4 of the 100 pushup challenge. Stomach has been hurting so did all pushups wussy style. 160 total.

Power finally came back on at 5:30 this morning. It was a cold night.

Sold my Utah Valley Half Marathon slot today. I was starting to worry about getting in shape for it in time and really didn't think I would be to that point.

Tonight was a bit more positive. I tightened down the brace and headed out for a walk in the snow with the dog. 2 1/4 miles and I was probably doing 17-18 minute miles. Some good stretching afterwards. I was even starting to think of a recovery plan while walking. :)

Whoa, 160 pushups wussie style is still way way good in my book!!! What is this challenge? Is it a group thing you are doing with other people? Or can a person do it individually? (I "should" be able to get started on an uppper body/core strengthening routine, but . . . hasn't happened!)

Sorry about your power being off so long, I bet it was really cold in your place.
