Today's been the hardest thus far.  I feel like I'm holding on by a thread.  I can either smoke or not smoke.  The choice is mine. I know if I smoke I will regret it.  I think I'll just be happy when this day is over; I will probably spend most of the day tomorrow outside in the sun and fresh air.

Hi, Marivi.  10 miles is awesome - especially running!!  My mom is exactly the same age as you and I cannot even convince her to walk around the block with me.  She has a hereditary condition and I believe she thinks that it doesn't really matter that she smokes, etc., but I keep trying to tell her that it's about quality of life, not always quantity.  You should be really proud of yourself.  Life is so much better as a non-smoker, at any age under any condition!
 
Hi, Rock.  About two years ago it was very easy for me to hike 20 miles.  There's a trail in particular I'm thinking of.  But I think smoking catches up with you and it did in my case.  If I stay the course, I can really put myself to the test soon and hike the Sand Gap Trail (in combination with a few other trails) at the Natural Bridge.  That would be an all-day hike and definitely cover 20 miles - that would be so nice.  I wanted to do it on my 32nd birthday but the trails were closed due to ice damage and I also thought that I would have been stretching it.  :-)

Hard to believe it is already Day 4.  I kept having to check and make sure that was right.

Day 4!  Yay!!  (Last night I was having evil smoking thoughts!)
 
Hi Rusty.  I remember you too.  :-)  There are a few people I've wondered if were still around here or not; maybe they check in every once in a while. 1700 days - that's awesome!  It must feel like you've never even smoked before.  (My homepage is offline right now; I've been too busy with other projects to keep it updated.)
