Insanity week 3.. finally plus fun work outs :D

So I finally started week # 3 on Insanity, after doing a 90 min spin class on Saturday and running 5 miles yesterday.  Let's just say my quads are SCREAMING, and so are my glutes.. YOWZERS!!!  I think I am glutton for punishment.  Though I am so happy with my results, that I will continue to push through the boredom and the nervousness of knowing the work outs.  That is my one issue with these, is I wish there was more variety. I get bored easily and that is exactly what is happening.  I know the work outs, so one would think I would push myself even harder, especially since I have not mastered them yet.  Instead I am dreading them, as I know how hard they are.  Not good for me.  But I did it.. I got through today's and I will get through tomorrows.. even if tomorrows will hurt a lot!
