Day 4: Smoke No More

Good news! I haven't slipped! Yay! I'm a bit late posting this one. Ya see, I work nights, and was sleeping all day. 😉 I'm such a bum.

I worked out yesterday, and it was amazing. I could control my breathing through the entire workout.

See, even when I worked out before, every single day, I was still smoking, and when I would finish, my muscles were worked out, but, I could not catch my breath. It was very discouraging. Sad to admit, but, I chose to continue smoking, and stopped working out (back then). I am making no promises, because, it seems when I make promises to myself, I break them. But, instead, my goal is to continue working out, 5 days a week, through December.

Here's the deal. I love to be active. I love doing obstacle course/mud races. When I did my last one, I walked the entire thing, and skipped many of the obstacles. If I'm going to PAY to run a damn race, and PAY to do obstacles, I better be doing the whole of it, from now on!

I have 2 races, left,  to do this year. One is a 6k obstacle, and the other is a regular 5k. Nothing spectacular, by any means, but I want to finish with a decent, less  embarrassing time than I have in past events. 😉

This last one, I did, took me 2 hours and 10 minutes! It was a 5k OCR. Granted, it was up and down some muddy, steep hills, but I walked the entire thing! The whole damn thing.

Any way. I got off subject.

Nothing too crazy in the way of dreams. I just had a short clip of a dream where my child was a little punk. Lol.

Here's to another day of being smoke free!
