Count me in.

However, what makes anyone believe that people will be honest. I'll be honest, but how can anyone be sure?

Are we putting faith in everyone's word?

I'm in. Running sleep studies for 7 hours. Do them every 30 minutes. Work 4 nights, so 16 total nights. 16 x 14= 224. 10K/224 = 44.6... Might need to do some on the other days. If I do 40 every 30 minutes while running studies, I would need to do 1,040 away from work. So 15 days divided by 1,040 is 69.3 a day. 35 in morning and at night. Yeah I think I can swing that. Let's do this.

I'm in. I did 115 today and I'm already feeling it. I'm pretty active but I haven't worked out in a couple of years. I just got into running again yesterday. This will be good for me even if I don't get the full 10k but I think I can. I'm 26 fwiw.

Using today as a test run. Woke up at 5:30 and did 50 (can't do 50 at once though). Going to do 3 sets of 10 / 15 each hour at work and try and do the rest at home (no social life to speak of whatsoever). Hopefully I get to 300. Keeping track on the calculator app on my phone.

Paedin,

Is this an LSU only list? If possible, add me to the list.

I just do quick sets of 50. If you do 50 each hour, you should meet your daily quota by the end of the work day.

It shouldn't be that difficult.

yea my problem is I work at a bank. can't just drop down and knock out 50 anytime I want

think I'm gonna try ~100 before work. ~100 during work-out, and the rest right before bed.

Thinking of hopping in here. I may pair it with a few pullups each time, too.

All that chest work with no back work = sore shoulders.

Same. The challenge p90x3 is nothing but push-ups & pull-ups. I'm going to try to incorporate 40-50 dead hang pull-ups 3x a week in addition to the push-ups.
