Is that one push up for the day or for the whole year? I could go for the latter. Nice write, congrats on your win ~ John

Incredible, John, that you found my small Monoku given that it's 3rd from the bottom of a long list. As for push ups, pacing is everything. One for a whole year isn't unreasonable or unreachable. Go for it. Cheers Brian

Great mono Brian, I can just imagine this one playing out, can we use our knees, or would that be cheating, best of luck in the contest, cheers David
