The Disposable Heroes Project

My name is Keith, I am an engineer/CrossFitter from New York and I got this idea from Dave Lipson's 365 Days of Squatting where he did at least 1 back squat a day for an entire year at 450 lbs. My challenge is one rep clean and jerk at roughly my body weight, 185 lbs. Where Lipson performed his challenge for the American Melanoma Foundation, I am performing my challenge for The Disposable Heroes Project.

I am currently 69 days in, and have only missed 5 days. Every day that I miss I add 10 burpees to the penalty; at the end of the 365 days I will do all of the burpees in one shot.

My fundraising efforts thus far have been sub-par and I am trying to step it up. I have set up a PayPal donation account (which can be found on the righthand side of the page), that I would urge you to contribute to. If you don't feel comfortable donating to a PayPal account, you can donate directly through the DHP site. My fundraising goal is $2,000.00 and I am asking for everyone's help to reach this goal. I am over 3 months in and have only raised $150.00, so I have a ways to go.

I use this blog to track my training and keep a tally of all of the days I complete and days that I miss. Every once in a while I'll post a picture or video or story of me doing something dumb or funny or semi-irresponsible. Feel free to sift through my past posts to see what I mean...

Thank you for your time! Stay tuned and stay classy.
