Can I just say OMG. And no.

Gym lifting weights everyday and a mile on the treadmill, perhaps.

This? No. OM(f)G.

Ian: You are too funny. OM(f)G was my initial reaction too, but then I thought what the heck. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. (Can I tell you how bad my thighs and calves were burning after Day 1?--I am going to be so screwed as this continues use).

This is intense! part of me wants to join, but I already kickbox 3 times a week, and run (1.5-3.5 miles...working my way up very very slowly) 2 times a week, and adding on this challenge might be too much. I think this is the type of thing I will start doing in the winter, when I'm too lazy/hate the cold too much to run.

But I think it's awesome and very motivating that you have decided to do this daunting challenge. Keep it up! You are going to have the best legs/butt in town!

I just copied and pasted that and upped the ante later in the 30 days. Pretty excited to do it. Looks easy enough until day 6 and 7. I changed the times for the planks to longer and eventually 60 seconds. I can do 60 seconds now, barely. so it'll be nice to build that up.

Thanks for coming up with that!
