100 Pushups: Day 3
Well Friday came and went. So did 63 pushups, but only barely. It was enough to move on to week two. Now time to rest for a couple days, you know, the kind of rest you can get when you are trying to finish up a project demo in time for a conference at work, and trying to move out of the apartment you have been living in for 3 years, oh and getting married in less than a week. That kind of rest.
Wall-E
Last night, Amy and I went to see the midnight showing of Wall-E. I have been incredibly excited for this movie for a long time, and despite being tired and the fact that the main character only knows like 3 words, it absolutely did not disappoint. I loved the movie, and in fact, might have almost shed a half-tear towards the end of the movie. Anyway, after the movie we were talking about how the various Pixar movies stack up against each other so I decided to actually rank them all. This is sort of a silly endeavor since Pixar simply doesn’t make bad movies. They are all fantastic. My list does not include “A Bug’s Life” which for some strange twist of fate, I have never seen it. The only one I definitely know were to place is “Cars”. I enjoyed it, but it just wasn’t as good as the others. As far as I am concerned the other 7 are almost a tie, but for the sake of ordering them, here you go:
- The Incredibles
- Wall-E
- Ratatouille
- Finding Nemo
- Monsters, Inc.
- Toy Story 2
- Toy Story
- Cars
100 Pushups: Day 2
After the first day, I didn’t feel much until late last night, at which point I felt like my upper body had been punch a few times too many. It is entirely possible I am not very fit. Regardless, day 2 arrived and I more than made it through what was asked of me. The total for the day was 57 pushups, though that came with a number of rests that went a little over the recommended 90 seconds. Also of note, Amy has started doing this with me, so I might actually keep with it. She is starting out a little behind me in terms of number of pushups since she has a hard time with doing full pushups, but we are both defintily working on getting to a 100.
100 Pushups: Day 1
The personal challenge of doing 100 consecutive push-ups has begun. In the initial test, I was able to do 17. That put me in the highest level going into the first week, which means that I did 43 push-ups just now, and my arms are a little wobbly. More to come on Wednesday.
