Running

So, my dad got me to start running. We're using this Couch to 5K program. It's three times a week. I finished the first week, but I think I'm going to do it all over again. I don't feel like I'm ready to move onto week 2.

 

Dad said once I quit smoking he would get me into running. I guess he was right. And I have a Fitbit now and this weekend we're getting myself some running shoes. I think he tricked me into all of this. (j/k)

 

I'm finding how hard it is to run for 60 seconds with just a 90 second walk in between. Week 2 is 90 seconds with two minutes in between. Since I'm having trouble running for 60 seconds, I'm going to do week 1 over again. Though my last day of week 1 was pretty good. I only stopped running early once.

 

The reason we're going out for running shoes is my current ones are rubbing up against the knuckle of my big toe and leaving a blister. It's better when I put a bandaid over it, but still not great.

 

Halfway through week 4! Woohoo!

That's excellent.  How do your lungs feel?  This is one thing I love about not smoking, clean lungs.  For me it got to a point that if I took too deep of a breath, or if I laughed to hard, I would cough. Not anymore

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
