    Way to GO!!! You are awesome!!

    I know just how you feel. I could barely get the 30 seconds done at the beginning without feeling like I was gonna die. Last night was the first night of Week 4 (5 minutes running) and I actually had butterflies in my stomach as I started the warmup. I was so shocked and happy to actually run that entire time without stopping! This program rocks!

    Yay for you!!! It's an awesome feeling isn't it. I know I dreaded that thought of "what if I can't do it?" But I did and so did you. Congrats!!! I have w3d2 tonight. I am actually excited!

    I definitely can see it being addicting! I wanted to get an extra run in yesterday but it rained and I had to get groceries ( single parent so only an hour between daycare drop off and work) I also starred the 30 day shred today! Who'd have thought!!

    I just completed Week 3 Day 1 today. I was scared and that last 3 minute run was tough but I made it!
