Easy Miles	Threshold Miles	Marathon Pace Miles	Track speed mileage	Hill mileage	Total
0.70	2.50	0.00	0.00	0.00	3.20

Lifted for legs EZ they are still feeling Saturdays run.

OK here is the deal with the push-up challenge (notice I said challenge not CONTEST). I am going to do the push-ups Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights before I go to bed, and then report on the following days. You can report your progress here or on your own blog.

I did 20 push-ups (girly ones) during my initial test and so I am going to start in column three tonight. Good luck to all of you. I will need your support… this is the third time I have tried to do this so DO NOT let me quit!

Nice recovery plus tempo run there. Is that what you were doing? Don't you love my running lingo? I used to just run, how far or how fast were insignificant. I didn't even wear a sport watch. Now after each run, I have to classify the miles. It's so dumb!

OK, I will do the challenge. I think it's gonna be fun.

Great job Kathie. I'll try and get in my initial push-up numbers tomorrow.

GREAT RUN TODAY!!!! And thanks for adding the LINGO Smooth!

Okay, I just did my push-ups! I am in, becasue I have attempted this challenge twice and bugged out. I forget to do it.

I decided to try to stick with GUY push ups for the challenge just to see how far I can get. I did 15, but I think I would have to call the last one bad form, so I will say 14 and start with level 3 (I guess it does not really matter since level 3 is 11-20 push ups). I agree with the MWF plan, but I can not count today so this week I will do TWF---just this once.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE, and thanks for the motivation Kathie!!!

Geeeez! I have been too lazy to do my max pushups, I will try and do them tonight. Good job on getting 20, I'll be lucky to get 10.

Challenge to a runner means Contest. Nice running. You are improving rapidly.
