1000 Pushups, Did it Happen?

Well, 986 in one hour.  It took another 2 min and 25 seconds to finish the 1000.  I had an odd number, 9, to complete and I did a set of 10 to finish; so 1001 in one hour 2 min and 25 seconds.  Not bad for a middle-aged physician.

No about performance enhancement.  Of course I was tempted, but I stuck with the natural stuff.  I was nauseous and achy in the two days before the event; I was afraid that I may have had to cancel.  It was not pre-event jitters, I think that it was a mild case of  viral gastroenteritis. (That’s what I get for taking care of sick people)  So on the morning of the event I took two Tylenol and later two ibuprofen.  I drank a venti non-fat mocha from starbucks and consumed two low-fat chocolate milks during the one-hour event.  Thanks to everyone who supported me, and especially the lack of doubt of my abilities.
