Ran once and separately realized that my stated goal of completed 52,000 push ups in 2018 will be quite taxing.  Just hard to get ahead and bank volume at those figures -- but of course, if it were easy then why do it?   Complicating the volume accumulation is the fact that I've reduced my high total reps days from 3 down to 2, this due to agreement I made with a friend to lift heavy once a week in the weight room -- something I haven't done in 20 years.

Haven't resumed running yet, "the holiday's" seem to derail me each year...in this I suppose I am not unique, but hopefully this year I will be unique in not allowing them to.
