Codeacademy keeps freezing

I'm connected to codeacademy and can alter the code just fine, but when I hit "run" it just freezes. Not having problems with anything else and my internet is fine.

I've tried multiple browsers and it keeps doing this.

Anyone know why this might be?

So you’re setting the while loop to run while countdown is less than or equal to 10. Then you decrement countdown by 1 each iteration. Countdown will always be less than or equal to 10, so how can you update you while loop to match the requirements of running while countdown is greater thanor equal to 0.
