No rest days recently and my lungs are keeping up with my pace much better. For reference, I've smoked cigarettes for 40 year and vaped on and off for the last 10. That being said, I've always been able to #run long distance even as a smoker. The problem is that when I go on hiatus, it's the starting back up running that's a challenge.

I'm telling you this because there's never a valid excuse not to start something you feel might go against your abilities. All you need is a little determination, the ability to start with baby steps(#realisticgoals), rather than setting them too high, and follow through.(@bushcraftbites #health & #wellness acct) #fitness #5k #activity #hiverun
