Re: smoking and exercise

I quit tobacco 14 years ago. Whilst I was in the British Army, I used to smoke. After intensive physical training which I managed well enough, I couldnt smoke for at least 3 to 4 hours. I think what the body is saying is that it is in recovery mode, and the thought of inhaling poisons at this stage is unthinkable.

The lesson is: listen to your body.

Scared Shitless

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
