So…what the hell was I thinking? Sure, 100 burpies in 100 days, sounds fun. Yeah, sure it does, until you start doing it.
As of April 18 I’m 1/3 of the way to my 100 burpies in a day (what the hell am I talking about? Follow this link.) The challenge has a simple concept, for each of the 100 days you do the number of burpies for that day’s number. So, day one, you do one; day 10, you do 10; day 73, you do 73; all the way to 100.
I will say, that I can feel a difference. Now I can do 10 in a row without wanting to vomit up my kidneys – that feeling now takes 15; it took 5 when I first started. I am actually pleased with this whole task, which, to be honest, I was not sure I would stick with at first. The reality of it is that the task does not really take that much time. I can knock out 15 in probably less than two minutes (guessing, totally, but probably pretty accurate).
In any case, I’m on track for my 100 and sticking to it. Except…I do plan on taking two days off for my rafting trip the first weekend in May. Given the event I do not see fitting in the burpies for those two days, so my final date will be extended.
Look for another burpie update when I hit 50!
