DOD Order to Saab for MAAWS ( See in Action !)
Volume 7
Prior to the 90-second challenge , ask people you know to pledge $ 1 per pushup ( or any amount ). Get someone to help you count and go for it . Remember to time yourself . Don ’ t worry , 90 seconds gives you ample time to exhaust yourself , rest and begin pushing again . Collect the money your supporters donated and send it to Boot Campaign . It ’ s that simple . People of all ages do as many pushups as possible in a minute and a half and raise funds in the process . Kids can do it . People who don ’ t usually exercise can do a few pushups . In fact ,
I ’ ve seen people in their 70s and 80s give it a go .
We Push for YOU . What Do YOU Push For ?
