TGIF push ups and NO running

The last two days have gotten in the way of my workouts. I was supposed to do 3 miles yesterday but I got sick. I was already feeling a little sick the day before.
I still wasn't feeling well today so I stayed home from work. Today is supposed to be a rest day. But I''m thinking about going to the gym in a couple of hours to get in 3 miles.

Anyways I'm excited because I have convinced my wife to join me in the 100 push up challenge. So to give you some background on my wife she was a sprinter in high school and in college. She won many trophies and still holds records for her high school. She then went into the army and worked out a lot and had some huge arms. After that she became a personal trainer and got pretty ripped. Anyways after getting married to a lazy guy like me and having our two awesome kids. She hasn't had the time to workout like she did before. Its been a while since she has done one single pushup. But tonight she ripped out 7 push ups for her first test. Then she proceded to complete day one. When she got to her max she she did 10 push ups! She tore it up.

Anyways today I finished week 1 here are my sets:

11
15
9
9
13 max, I was only able to do the least allowed.

thanks,
Chuck

I need to pick back up on the 100 push up challenge, I was doing it for a bit, but haven't these last few weeks, though I too was recently sick and just haven't picked it back up.
