Sup vapers of the world,
So today I completed my first 10km run since I’m off the stinkies. I have gained a lot of weight since my last race and didn’t have enough time to prepare for this one.
Just a bit of background, I use to participate in the 2 ocean half marathon, did the Vaal marathon, a few other half marathons and use to train quite often.
For all those who run you should know that at some point in the race your heart rate stabilizes, breathing becomes less hasty and you find an easy rhythm. While on the stinkies it use to kick in about 7-9 JMS into a race and the first 7-9 kms were my the worst.
This being my only race I can compare to the past, I’ve noticed that I reached this point of equilibrium significantly faster and even though I gained a whopping 30kgs since my last race I did not struggle during the first few kms as much as I use to.
I can’t say that vaping is good for you but it sure as hell does not have the impact on your body as smokes do. Yes my legs are killing me but my breathing etc was a lot easier despite my heavy weight I was lugging around.
I am so motivated to get back into running and drop this excess person I’ve gained and wish that I can compare my times of next years 2 oceans half marathon to what I’ve done in the past.
Just my take on how vaping has helped me
