Anyone lamenting a sucky time, fret not: my old roommate sent me a text message telling me he'd got his time down to 7:48. He's a 40-year-old smoker in the region of 200lbs who's overweight, with no real sports background. His first attempt about four/five months ago finished at 19 minutes.

It can be done.

I'M ONLY 39 1/2, YOU KNOW! Also, I'm not over 200 pounds since I started The Burpee Challenge, and if my old dart buddies weren't face-down in the alleys behind my hometown pubs right now they'd sure take umbrage with your classification of darts as "no real sports background."

And I'm down to 7:09 now and am determined to beat your 5:33 by October so as to lessen my cravings for a bullet sandwich on my 40th Birthday.

Yerdaddy / 7:09

under 200

I did some of these "burpees" you speak of. Turns out they're hard as fuck.
