Nearing a week smoke free

I awoke this morning with no thoughts of smoking. What an achievement. I have been talked into doing a 5k race for life in Cambridge with a friend at work who nearly burst when I told her I'd stopped. I had no idea she was so upset that I'd smoked. Anyway with that kind of support how can I deny a run with her. Rude not to.

5k seems like a really long way at the moment but I have retrieved my running shoes from the bottom of the wardrobe (they were tucked away right at the back) and I have registered so there is no going back. I have also persuaded another friend to run with me, after all if I can quit smoking perhaps she can run with me. It worked!!! Training begins tomorrow.
