So much for my 100 push ups a day challenge. Had a bit of a problem the day after I was supposed to start. I tweaked a muscle in my neck and had to take a few days off from working out. After a few days rest I got back into the gym and was lifting heavy during a chest and tri workout and re-aggravated it. So now this week I have not been to the gym or been out running since Sunday. Well today I am going back to the gym and running and I am hitting it hard. You can't succeed in life or in fitness if you are not willing to push yourself further than you did the day before. I am looking forward to hitting the gym again and getting after it. I have goals to meet and ass to kick.

100 Push-Ups Per Day Challenge
So I'm Bored again and need something to keep me busy other than the usual workouts. With that in mind I have decided to start a new 30 day challenge for myself. I will be doing a minimum of 100 Push-Ups per day for the next 30 Days. This will be on top of my normal workouts. Not to mention I all so have a Half Marathon that I am training for, so this should be interesting. After all is said and done, I should have completed at least 3,000 Push-Ups between now and September 23rd. As usual I will keep track of my progress on a page on my blog. I encourage everyone to all so set a goal for themselves. It doesn't have to be 100, and it doesn't have to be Push-Ups. Choose an exercise that you know you have been neglecting and get to it. Set a reasonable goal for yourself and keep pushing until you reach it.

Chicago Half Marathon
So I found out today that I will be running the Chicago Half Marathon on September 9th. I am very excited. This will be my 2nd half marathon and I am hoping to improve my time of 2 hours and 30 minutes from last time. This is all thanks to my company, which I cannot name, for providing the registration that I otherwise could not have purchased. This means I will be rededicating myself to running faster and longer for the next month while all so trying to maintain my weight lifting schedule. This should be tough, but totally worth every pain and sore muscle.
