Hi there everyone,

 

its been a while but I am still here and going fairly strong, I mostly just check in every now and then without posting.

My quit is still strong and I know that I really don't want to smoke again and I hope this attitude lasts a lifetime. I have managed to join a running club and ran 15k yesterday just for practise. I have run a 10k race since I quit in an pretty good time and have entered my first ever 15k race for the 19th of April. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that this would be possible as I was smoking 25-30 smokes a day for well over 20 years!  

 

its amazing what an awesome gift I've been given by quitting. And I firmly believe that if I can do it, anyone can! on the 4th of April I will be clean from Heroin for 7 years too and have not touched a drink since either. Life is here for me to live and love it and the second best decision I ever made was to quit smoking (the first was getting clean).

 

hope you're all good and chat soon.
