Challenge Failed.

Yes yes, I am giving up on the 30 Day Shred.  Let me tell you why:

1. Thighs hurting so bad that I can barely go up and down the stairs of my house doesn't work for me.  I move a lot at my workplace, too so not being able to walk quickly isn't gonna work for 30 days.

2. After doing Zumba: Cardio Party today, loving the instructor is huge.  Jillian was full of excuses and not doing the moves half the time, yet she talked about how you have to "fight" for it.  Beto is there doing the moves more intensely than the rest of the group.  He loves what he's doing, and in return you kind of end up loving it too.

3. Did I mention that I could barely move after doing Jillian?  With Zumba, you're getting a much more effective workout, you're burning triple the calories, and you feel awesome the next day.

I love a challenge, but when it effects how I live in a drastic way... I'm sorry but no.  Yeah, I know it looks like I'm here making excuses, but I'm still working out 5x a week.  I'm just going to burn a couple DVDs later.  

Also, once my boyfriend moves down, I'm hoping I can convince him to go out walking with me on the trail. :D That'd be awesome.
