How many pushups?

Alright guys, im starting to slowly build myself into shape, very slowly at the moment.

i used to do 150 pushups throughout the day, doing sessions of 20, then the last one of 30

Hell, I haven't run any less than 4 miles at a time in years (usually 4-7).  The last time I ran the shorter distances was in high school (which was in the 80's ;) )  Fastest mile was 5:10...2 mile, don't remember.  I probably "shouldn't" run on a knee that's been hyper-extended 3 times (once it was sat on..unsupported)....but hey, what are you gonna do? :crazy:

Your run times are moving though...

yeah...needless to say, only one person in that class had an A and he was in track. IIRC, I was at 5:40 with half of the rest of the class.
