Comment:    I guess it was an inevitable result of my pitiful efforts to keep this blog updated with regularity, but it finally happened...I lost track of at least a few days.  It seems only fair for me to count those days as streak extender only days as I know for certain I did at least the minimum each day, but it is disappointing as I'm certain I logged perhaps hundreds more ....oh well, means logging 100,000 may take a bit longer than otherwise, but that is many days away regardless.  On the positive side, my right shoulder issue seems to be slowly progressing and as a result I look forward to greater efforts, including a max single set effort that is long overdue.   Stay tuned.   UPDATE!   Well, as a result of being the luckiest person who has ever lived, I just found a temporary log I had missed accounting for days I was missing (March 9-15)...I have now updated the above to reflect accurately.  Yeah for me!  (Finding that note accounted for an additional 527 push ups, which is significant, if only to me, then seeing I was short of 77,000 total push ups by 14 push ups I did 14 push ups)

PUSH UP DAYS 714-737

1472 Push ups

  • 17 streak extender days, with following mixed in
  • Day 716:   72 Push ups
  • Day 722:   72 Push ups
  • Day 726:   87 Push ups

  • NOTE:   Nothing especially noteworthy as far as sets go, most of them were 25-30 rep sets.  I did manage to endure Becca being out of town for 6 days during her mission trip to Honduras.  That's the longest period of time the boys and I have ever survived without her.  I  hope that record is never broken. 

Cumulative total:      73,937


Comment:   This streak has now eclipsed the 2 year mark, which means next goal is 1000 straight days?   Then 3 years?  Hmmm, we'll see.
