Is there any value whatsoever on doing this, /fit/?

I run. About 30-35 miles a week, and I enjoy the fuck out of it. However, I really hate doing any other sort of exercise. To try to get around that, the last few weeks I've been doing 20 situps and pushups every hour on the hour whenever I'm awake, assuming I can slip away from my desk at the appointed time during the week, or if I'm not out somewhere where it's impossible (really not going to contemplate the idea of doing pushups in a public bathroom). So I usually end up somewhere in the area of 200-250 of them a day--but only 20 at a time. Can I expect any benefits from this, or is doing so few at once pretty much a waste of time?

Thanks.

You can expect to a fucking haus in terms of pushups and situps. The method you're doing has a fitness term of greasing the groove and pretty much you're teaching your CNS to remember the movement and even though your training under your max, you'll get results in terms of numbers. However, muscle growth, athletic performance, I am not sure about. If you could throw some pullups or handstand pushups (THESE) in there, you would have beastly fucking beastly lats and shoulders. Pushups (not handstand of course) on the bathroom floor = paper towels on the floor, but then again if someone walks in you'll look retarded or really devoted to the cause.
