doooooooood! you did freaking 630 pushups? oh crap you are going to be hating life in a couple of days! holy crap.

...thanks for posting your total before I did the WOD. It gave me a total to shoot for (which, I concede, isn't really fair).

Total: 635.

Those last 135 were awful. I knew I had to get to 630, which meant I had to average 40/minute over the last 3+ minutes. As you all know, averaging that many pushups when your arms are that tired is rough.

My new slogan for tonight: I love me some jelly.

That video reminds me of Nacho Libre. I'm sitting here singing, "I saw you in the film for just two seconds ... "

PS: I'm starting to get chestly sore.

Naylor said...

didn't have a good wod today...too many distractions to do 20 mins straight. i ended up doing 500 pushups and 50 ring dips.

Don't worry Naylor, even Superman is Clark Kent every now and again.
