The Magic Hundred

Just a quick fitness-related post: I did the hundred! I took up the challenge with some friends and have been working towards the goal for the past six weeks. Today was the final test and I cranked out 106 pushups. I actually felt pretty good all the way through and got to the magic hundred without too much pain. I'm happy to be done with strictly push-up work-outs. Week six was crazy. Here are my results:
