OK. So I started this morning officially. It feels great. I haven't smoked a ciggy in three weeks and it feels great!

Your first run? It does feel great doesn’t it! You’d better get used to that feeling, it only gets better. Well done on quiting the ciggies too. Very impressed 👏👏👍

Well done for starting a healthy thing and stopping a dangerous one.

Well done. If you've given up the fags you've got the will power to ace the running.

Excellent tabatha21, you have saved a lot of money in stopping the ciggies, how much are they? about £9 a packet if not more, that is more than £60 a week you are saving not smoking, £240 a month. Welcome to Healthunlocked and to C25K, I am so glad that you enjoyed your first run, just take the runs nice and slowly, good luck.
