It was time for the week 4 exhaustion test. I almost forgot about it as I was getting ready for bed later than normal. Despite wanting to simply crawl into bed, I knew I better stick to my plan. Yes, I was very tired, but it was test time.
I was able to do 44 good form pushups. I skipped count on 2 pushups that I felt shouldn't count. I was also losing form at the end, so while I thought i could eek out a few more, I wasn't sure I would be able to judge if I stayed in good form.
Week 5 begins tonight.
Yet another running and fitness blog to join the thousands that are out there. This one is to track the "hopeful" progress as I try to improve on my nearly 5 hour marathon time and eventually qualify for Boston.

100 pushups Week 4
Week 4 is in the books. I completed the week and am ready to do the exhaustion test and move on to week 5. I really struggled with the last set. Before I started day 3, I was thinking of moving to column 3, day one and doing day one and 2 before attempting day 3 of the second column. However, I finally decided to try each day, and if I cannot complete a day, I'll simply do it over again until I can get it.
Week 4
18-22-16-16-28
20-25-20-20-30
23-28-23-23-33
That is 100,115, and 130 pushups totaling 345 pushups for the week.
