BQ by 40

Over 13 consecutive days, I’ve logged 2,756 pushups, starting with 200
the first day, and added 1% (2 pushups) per day.

I break up the pushups into 8, 9, 10, and 11 sets on a rotating basis,
with my only goal for the sets being to complete the sets within one
hour.

So far, my biggest issue is not having the workout interrupted at some
point during the hour. Tonight, I had a 30 minute gap between my
first 3 sets and my last 5.

• Never been so disappointed in a sub-3 hour 20 mile long run #running #twit2fit I tried to repeat the workout that I pulled off last week--5-4-3-2-1 @ MP on a long run.  Last week, that run made me feel that I had a shot at 3:20 for a marathon.  This week, my run made me feel I would struggle to hit my PR.  While......
• Marathon Training plan and Pushups Plan #twit2fit Smart Coach Plan Created on 1/5/2009 - loose guide for mileage ramp-up and interval/tempo pacing. I plan on slowing down easy days as much as necessary to complete them. The plan says 8'56" miles, but Daniels' 2nd edition has as slow as 9'14" based on a 21'54" 5k time.Start mileage:......
• The Iroquois hill run and an 8-week streak #twit2fit I ran the full hill on Iroquois park on Friday afternoon:  Sunny and mid-80s.  I had a sluggish start, but enjoyed being able to run in the near-summer temperatures after missing out on running most of last summer. The "real uphill" to the top never seems to give me......
• Don't trust a pace group #running I have observed a pace group divide: accuracy decreases with target time increase. The pace groups that approach 3 hours come closer than the pace groups that approach four hours and beyond. I have witnessed a 4:15 pace group come in close to 4:30, while the 3:10 pace group was......
• Guess my 20 miler time: I ran 6.29 miles in the first hour + highest mileage week in a year. This was not a set up for a good long run today: I had a mid-back spasm in the first mile of my 5-miler yesterday morning that was still bothering me this morning. [Managed to fight for a 9'22" pace yesterday] The first hour of the run didn't break 9:30......
