Push up for Paws started 200 days ago today(July 22, 2010)! So far Nate has raised just under $1,000 selling his PushUps 4 Paws T- shirts. He’s been able to discuss the Oshkosh Area Humane Society with Next Age News, WLUK-TV FOX 11 and Channel-Five First-News. Hopefully there will be some additional interviews in the coming months. He did his 70,000th pushup today!
 
 
 
PushUps 4 Paws is long time OAHS supporter Nate Carroll’s individual endurance challenge starting on January 1, 2010.  The challenge consists of doing 100,000 pushups over the course of one year. On average, he will need to do 274 pushups per day for 365 days to reach the goal of 100,000.
 
During this challenge, Nate wants to accomplish two main goals
  • Raise awareness of the services offered by the Oshkosh Area Humane Society while generating funds through the sale of PushUps 4 Paws T-shirts and donations to his year long endeavor.
  • Document his entire experience in his book, Down & Back Up. The book will identify and discuss the components behind achieving success, whether it’s an endurance challenge like Push Ups 4 Paws or any personal or professional challenge a person may face.

You can  follow his quest towards 100,000 pushups, along with OAHS updates and information at the OAHS website, his blog, email blasts, and Nate’s personal Facebook and Twitter accounts.  It is Nate’s hope to educate, inspire and motivate others to achieve their goals and make their communities stronger.

Networking will be a huge factor in the overall success of PushUps 4 Paws. Please share this challenge with your friends and family. Feel free to ask questions regarding OAHS, the PushUps 4 Paws challenge, or anything related to animals or achieving success.

To quote Nathaniel Carroll: “Together we can make a difference, a difference at OAHS, and I truly believe, a difference in our lives. A good friend of mine told me that he never wants to say “I wish I could do that.” It is his belief, as well as mine, that we should pursue our dreams and make those dreams a reality.  Let me inspire you to achieve your goals.  Help me make PushUps 4 Paws a huge success.”
