I go running and i'm training for a 5k soon but i am also starting insanity, do you think i could run every second day and do insanity? or would it be too much? I'm 18

    I don't necessarily think it's too much. Insanity is very intense or so I've heard, (I'm not ready to do those videos yet.) Just go by how your feeling. Try it out for a week every other day or every 2 and see how you feel. I bet you'll find yourself doing both more often than you think, just don't go balls to the wall and kill yourself. Good luck!

    I reckon you'll be fine. I just finished the Couch to 5k podcasts (on week 10) and have been rolling out an easy 5k 3x a week.

    I also have been doing Insanity on and off for a while - it is not that hardcore that you cannot get out and run for half an hour.

    Just be sure you eat enough food - it makes me starving! they both burn, for me, approx 450 cals and so that is a 900 cals I need to get back into me asap.
