I am a habitual quitter myself. I go about 3 months without then start again...stress, boredom... who knows!
I haven't had a cigarette since Monday and ran Tuesday and Wednesday. Runnign does seem to keep me away from them.
Good luck to everyone!

Re: Is it possible for a man who just quit smoking

Yes, it can be done. But as said before it can be painful but very magical also. I did it (not in 5 months tho...more like a year) If I were you I would look into more of a Galloway program for the Mari in 5 months and just do it for the experience. You can build from there.
I had a baby recently and am just now trying to start back up and joined a local Galloway program. It is nice in that there really isn't all that much pressure. I will use the Galloway to run a 1/2 in January and build a strong base and them I will train for a full in June.
Good luck with the ex smoking. It is a hard habit to break!

Wow, thanks everyone...very good information from all.
I appreciate your in put. I think I am off to a GI doc just to double check although I doubt I will allow a scope (not because I am afraid of the scope but because I don't do NPO very weell...LOL) and other than that race day event...all is back to normal...

colon issues (sorry)

I ran a half mari today (which I could have been better trained for...but can run the distance)
At about mile 9 I had the feeling that I might need to "go" But it hurt more than anything...
Felt like I was trying to give birth more than anything else but definately wasnt productive.
I have eaten all the same things before todays race so I know it was not a food issue.
I was thinking it was some type of colits? spastic colo thing...anyone have experience with it?
and blood in the stools also?
Input welcome...ty
