15 watchers

Columba Dec 2018 6:47pm, 28 Dec 2018 17,040 posts	0 Columba Even though they're not "proper" ones. If they had to be proper ones my total would be 0.
NDWDave Dec 2018 1:14pm, 29 Dec 2018 8,383 posts	0 NDWDave 20/5,020. Did some post race ones last night
Columba Dec 2018 5:19pm, 31 Dec 2018 17,052 posts	0 Columba 30, to round the year off. Total for the year: 6,020
NDWDave Dec 2018 6:10pm, 31 Dec 2018 8,392 posts	0 NDWDave Nice one Columba. 500+/month
flyingfinn Dec 2018 7:36pm, 31 Dec 2018 1,165 posts	0 flyingfinn Well done Columba and you too Dave, glad the person that started it all made the target Just been ticking over for the last couple of weeks and eventually ended up with a nice round 16,250 for the year. Back to zero though tomorrow!
alpenrose Dec 2018 9:16pm, 31 Dec 2018 37,645 posts	0 alpenrose Well done to all that managed to complete the challenge, and then some! Thanks for coming up with the idea Dave, enjoy it all over again next year.
Oranj Dec 2018 10:11pm, 31 Dec 2018 1,271 posts	0 Oranj Blimey, 16,250 for the year is some going. I finally got over 1000 for a month in December, for a 2018 total of 8590 (and three times as many sit ups). Guess I'll be doing the same next year, I quite like this challenge.
Wriggling Snake Dec 2018 10:35pm, 31 Dec 2018 20,711 posts	0 Wriggling Snake I let this slip this last week
flyingfinn Jan 2019 1:42am, 1 Jan 2019 1,166 posts	0 flyingfinn Oranj, my target for 2019 is around a combined total of press-ups and sit-ups. Your 2018 sit-up total is very impressive! For me press-ups are a lot easier than sit-ups, so I clearly have stuff to work on!
Oranj Jan 2019 9:07am, 1 Jan 2019 1,272 posts	0 Oranj Ah I see, I find sit-ups easier so I do 30 every time I do 10 press-ups. I do some lying-on-the-floor twisting exercises to complement them so my back/pelvis doesn't get too stressed.

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