flyingfinn Dec 2018 5:32pm, 7 Dec 2018 1,155 posts	0 flyingfinn Passed the 15,000 target today. Going to carry on ticking over for the rest of the year but no more targets this year. Looking at a combined target for Press-Ups and Sit-Ups for 2019, thinking of starting off targetting 25,000 with at least 10,000 of each.

NDWDave Dec 2018 7:38pm, 10 Dec 2018 8,253 posts	0 NDWDave I will kick off a 2019 thread later this month. We started strongly but lost a few along the way. Why not get a few in so you are fully up to speed? Hope the injury heals up I’m still on 5,000 as I really can’t be bothered with more.

I used to have decent upper body strength but then I switched from doing triathlons to pure running ...
