I started smoking again. I was smoke free for a couple months, but work, life and general stress I started smoking again. The past 3-4 weeks I haven’t trained much either. Travel and work have made my formally aggressive training schedule take a back seat. My lungs hurting too. I can’t beat my self up for starting again, I just need to stop. My wife and daughters are great motivators too. Guilt will go a long way. Its hard but I need to get back up and start training again. When I train; I don’t smoke. Its that simple. The stress that is relieved by training is the same stress that I try to relieve by smoking. I am not going to run a marathon with Marlboro in my lungs.
