All about me!
My name is Amanda and as I’ve mentioned in my intro post, I’m addicted to a good time.
I quit smoking March 20th, 2011 and decided to use the energy and my addictive behavior on becoming a long distance runner, getting fit and becoming healthier.
I still love a good party and stiff drink but am trying to learn how to tread the fine line to enjoy the best of both worlds.
This blog will be a diary of sorts as I try to balance this new non-smoking, less partying, more running lifestyle. I hope others read, enjoy tips I may offer and become motivated in some way.
I love feedback, so please comment often and happy reading.

Congrats on quiting smoking π Not an easy task.
I have never smoked (nor been addicted to drugs), but can relate to the addiction nature, I am highly addicted to running (and shopping but shhhh dont tell the husband)!! I find that running really cures a lot of things, particularly stress.
Happy Running !!!

Thanks!!!! I too, am addicted to shopping and totally get you on the SHH!!! part with the hubbs! haha Thanks for commenting! It really does help motivate when you feel that others can empathize or are there to support you! It’s especially nice to find other runners to relate to! I LOVE it.
Happy running to you, too, and look forward to chatting again. π
