I’m doing one or two sets of 7 per day at the moment - could do more but like CW I don’t want it to become a chore. For the moment I’m happy to stick to easy numbers, and up them as and when I feel like it.

I thought about doing a second set this afternoon, but after a 20 mile run the thought of more exercise somehow no longer seems appealing…

Strained my left pec somehow. No press-ups for a while.

It's a marathon, not a sprint.

yep, I gave in last year when trying to maintain 200 a day. I was doing 50 each time I have a coffee but as you say it's a hassle. I have set my sights lower this year!

Wash your mouth out with soap wizard :-) .

Press ups a vitally important part of a runners training, as all core work is and must be!

Made a birthday promise to my better half to seek to tone my upper body beyond the flabby state it is in currently, so minimum 10 press ups, 25 crunches and at least 1x60s plank daily. Going OK so far and reckon I'm just about past 10 being at the limit of what I can reasonably do. Prompt set in my phone daily to remind me if it gets to 9:30pm and I've still not done them!
