Crying While Working Out

So, I've just started Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred a few days ago. I'm also training for a 5K and running three times a week. Sometimes, I'll get a flash of how far I've come and how hard it has been and how hard it's going to be to carry on and get more intense and get to where I really want to be. Fit, fine, and healthy. In the midst of the workout, with Jillian barking encouragement at me or with the feel of my feet pounding the pavement and the wind in my face...I cry! I am NOT a big crier to begin with. I hate to cry. But there's something almost cathartic about pushing myself so hard.

Has anyone else experienced this?

    I've gotten to points where I've almost wanted too... but then I realize those feelings are distracting me from my ultimate goal and begin to feel determined/tunnel visioned again.

    I have a feeling I will break down in tears once I reach my goal though... out of sheer happiness
