Exercise: Join a Track Club

by Jamie Sue

Exercise! Exercise is an amazingly powerful and positive way to charge the body, instead of lighting a cigarette. I ran on the treadmill at my own speed for a month or so BEFORE quitting smoking, and when I finally quit, I joined a track club. We have set work-out dates every week, which keep me motivated. Now my body is getting stronger by the day, and I am slowly catching up to those on the team who probably never smoked in their lives. I cannot say enough about how much better life is now as a non-smoker. When people ask if it was hard, I always answer, "Not as hard as living life as a smoker."
