I'm glad the challenge isn't all at once. You can only eat an elephant one bite at a time.

Mentally I want to tell myself I need to rest a day between but I build peers so I have to physically hammer, hold 30 foot piles while a machine squishes them in the mud, I have to demolition old peers and sometimes I have to swim.

This challenge just gives me a little extra to focus on.

In Army schools we would take a lot of classes. If you got sleepy the suggestion was to do pushups so men and women soldiers would sometimes break out and beat their face. Good times!

When I'm doing office work I do the same now just to get the motor running.
