    U.S. Army Sgt. Edmond Burkhalter, from New Orleans, La., Sgt. Carrie Reede, from State College, Pa., and Sgt. 1st Class Marcus Nix, from Houston, Texas, after completing a two-minute push up challenge at Camp As Sayliyah, a U.S. military installation in Qatar, on Feb 13. Reede earned first place in the women's category after completing 74 push-ups. The men's category had some extra excitement when Burkhalter and Nix discovered their efforts were tied; they both completed 125. After a second attempt, the two Soldiers tied again with 69 push ups. Both Soldiers were awarded a first place trophy. The popularity of the day's push-up challenge was fueled by a donation of shirts, accessories and magazines from Muscular Development, a popular monthly newsstand publication.
