My name's Pete, and I'm not the fittest person in the world. Somehow, though, I've found myself preparing for a 10K run in May, 2011.

This blog previously charted my various fitness activities as a means of self-motivation. Now, it's going to chart my training for this event, and beyond.

58 Pushups, 169 Situps

I’m aware I’m being inconsistent with my hyphenation of push(-)ups and sit(-)ups but my blog, my rules, even if I don’t stick to them.

Obvious improvement tonight as I successfully managed to pull off 20 push(-)ups in a row without stopping and/or dying (which would also cause stoppage, I guess, just a bit more permanent) and 55 sit(-)ups, also without stopping and/or dying. This is Progress. Those two figures felt about my limit tonight, though, as my arms were about to give way in the push(-)ups and I was just starting to feel a bit queasy-vomity by the end of the sit(-)ups.

I wonder if I’d be able to do more if I didn’t have to do the “big batch” at the end of the sets? Who knows. Perhaps I’ll try it tomorrow, given that it’s not a “programme” day.
