Well, I was worried it might happen when I pushed myself from not having done any kind of non-aerobic exercise for 25 years to doing 100 squats everyday, and it may have finally happened. The day before yesterday when I got to about 80 squats, suddenly I felt a shooting pain in my foot. Painful enough that I had trouble balancing and had to sit.
I don't like to give up so I forced myself to slowly get through the next 20 after a long rest, but my foot kept hurting quite a bit. D'oh. I suppose my squatting form wasn't very good and I put pressure on the wrong place on my foot. Just a guess.
The next day it still hurt, badly enough that walking was difficult. I tried to do my squats, but I only got to 60 before I had to call it quits. But again, I hate quitting, so a few hours later before bed I forced my body to do the last 40.
That's two 100 days in a row in a week I was hoping to push above 150. Oh well. With my foot hurting I don't want to push too much.
Today it does feel a bit better so we will see how it goes. I hope to finish the month with a bang! We'll see.
That brings me to 3,095 for the month!
here.I'm doing this 100 Squats per day Challenge with @livinguktaiwan, @pardinus, and @xrayman to raise funds for Cancer Research. Read my challenge announcement
If anyone else wants to join, please do, and please mention it here! And if you want to donate, please donate here or send HIVE/HBD directly to @livinguktaiwan and she will convert it to fiat and donate it herself.
Almost all of us will have to deal with cancer in our lifetimes, either we will get it or someone we love will get it. 1 in 8 women will eventually get breast cancer. An astonishing 1 in 3 men will eventually get prostate cancer. There are many other cancers with similar scary high rates. If you are able, please consider donating or spreading the word of this fundraiser.

One more day, you're doing very well!
Ohhhh No!!!!! Please don't push it to hard to hurt yourself!
This challenge is a good one, and with a gold finishing feeling, but it doesn't have to cause impairment in your personal wealth wile completing it...
I hope that today you are felling much better, and that you can manage to do your normal day life. If so, please consider the option of reducing the total number os squats, or at least less repetition per set... Try to do some warm up exercises, of the ankle, and if you feel pain or discomfort, my advise to you it is to call the day off for the challenge. You don't want to gain a long period pain situation in your foot...
Get well soon, my friend! And congratulations on the effort that you have put yesterday and the day before!
Oh no! Please don't push yourself! It's more important to not injure yourself in the challenge, you've done extremely well already
Hope you're feeling better now
