Not likely. I've got a 10+ miler starting in about 30 min.
I had suggested running for the next challenge. I don't want to feel responsible when people get hurt. Increasing your mileage too quickly is not a good idea. Maybe we should get Mouton's advice on the issue though.

Or maybe we do 50 miles instead of 100. I'm doing about 100/month now, but I've been running for years.

As for weather... Its 60 and sunny here. Dry too. Great running weather.

1- 150
2- 200
3- 250
4- 300
5- 250
6- 300
7- 200
8- 350
9- 150
10-150
11-300
12-100
13-400
14-350

16-0
17-250
18-500

Should be at 6400. Time for the kick to get this thing done. I'm up to doing 50 per set in about 45 sec. I just drop and do them whenever I think about it.

Yeah 10k push-ups is a good challenge because it is doable for so many people. Miles and/or pull ups challenges are not going to be as achievable for so many.

I definitely have enjoyed this, but although I've been keeping up with the lifts that I normally do, I'll admit it has caused me to slack off on the other workouts I would have done in the past 3 weeks.

Ad another 200 to my total.

I was nominated for the ice bucket challenge. I completed it while doing one handed push-ups.
