Can You Do as Many Pushups as an Olympic Runner?

Through Dec. 18, newly crowned U.S. national club cross country champ and 2016 U.S. Olympian Colleen Quigley is having fans post Instagram videos of themselves doing at least 20 pushups. Quigley will randomly pick one of the pusher-uppers and send them some Nike gear. (See full details at Quigley’s website or follow her on Instagram @steeple_squigs.)

“I spoke to a Girl Scout troop in St. Louis a few weeks ago and they asked me how many pushups I could do,” said Quigley, who competed in the 3,000-meter steeplechase in the Olympics in Rio last summer. “I didn’t know … so of course we had a pushup contest right then and there! You wouldn’t believe how strong these girls were!”
