That’s the goal. All at one time. By the end of the month.
If you were hoping that I’d resolve to be a better person or
pay my taxes* or blog on the weekends: no. I’m resolving to do the equivalent
of a Jersey Shore episode, without
the tanning, preening or STDs**.
Because this is the Internet, I could tell you that I already
have the physique of a Gold Medal Olympian*** and you would have to believe me.
It’s required by law in every country****, save Latvia. But I’ll be honest: I
have the physique of a Bronze Medalist.
And after eating a goodly sum of Holiday fare, this Bronze
Medalist was surprised to find out that he could do a Herculean ten (10) push-ups
in a row. TEN. One Zero. Whoops.
But what good is a goal without an incentive to stay focused
and motivated? Actually a lot of good, but what I propose is this: I’ll donate
a dollar to some charity***** for every push-up shy of 100 (100 – X = $Y) that
I am on January 31st. So if I do 75 push-ups, I’ll donate $25. If I forget to
do the push-ups entirely, then it’s the full $100 (yikes). If I do all 100,
then I get to enjoy the satisfaction that comes with not having to donate any
money.
If you want to join me, go head-to-head or just make fun of
me publicly, let me know.
