The Beginning of the End


With the end of this experiment rapidly approaching, the final month of two-adays has been thrust mercilessly upon me. And although this past week has been thoroughly brutal, there is some relief to be found in knowing the finish line draws near.


But, just as the old saying goes, we're "so close, yet still so far". I have to remember that even though I'm almost finished, this doesn't mean I can take it easy and coast in for the landing...Whether I like it or not, what lies ahead of me is 7 more weeks of pushing my body to the Burpee limit and coming out stronger because of it.

Okay...let's not get that crazy...

I'm proud to say I've made it this far, and even more proud that I was able to complete the entire week of two-adays with only a 30 second break in between each set (which was my goal from the beginning). My results from the week are listed below:

This week I'll leave you with a quote taken from TIME Magazine said by one of baseball's greats, Frank Robinson:


"Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades."
