Day 41 A Matter Of Mind Over Body Part I


Up at 6:30 a.m. 7 hours of rest. weight - 167 lbs. 7:00 drank 14 fl. oz. of EAS. Myoplex - 25 grams of protein. 8:30 20 oz. of coffee with 9 grams of protein mixed in, sipped on it till noon. 10:00 - conducted kids class. went very well. 1:30 p.m. arrived at St. Ambrose. I had one hour to prepare for the event. I was worried about the bleachers not being out but we found someone to do it. Then it was around 2:20 and the music D.J. wasn't there yet, but he got in and got set up on time. Now the only thing left to think about was doing 2100 push ups in the next hour. I was ready. It helped that many students, friends and family showed up to join me, help out or just to watch and cheer. After a few words from the charity recipients and a prayer from the Pastor we were ready to begin. What happened in the next hour was amazing. I'll never forget the energy, support, and enthusiasm from that small crowd of a hundred people. I got down every minute along with about forty five others doing push ups. the excitement just kept growing as the hour went on. At first I could talk between sets and introduce people talk about the music that was playing, but after about a half an hour I had to really focus on getting through each set.
