Congratulations Pookie!
And what a great reward! You got a great substitute for cigarrettes! Running is better, I think!(lol).
And it's amazing that you can run in your first week. I experienced a total lack of energy for the first 7 days of my quit. Of course I feel great right now.
Congratulations Pookie!

Pookie, what a wonderful reward to help you in starting running again!  Congratulations on surviving Hell Week!  You've got a great quit going!  Keep taking it one day at a time, keep telling the nicodemon N.O.P.E., and you'll go far!

Thats an awesome reward! The progress you see in your health and lungs will really help to improve your running!  What a great motivator!  Any others taking up more exercise since their quit?
