Us drunks have addictive personalities, if you're like me I get addicted to anything....do a few runs loose a pound....then the obsession starts.....got to push it hard to loose a pound again this week.....I better do an extra 10 miles more than last week just to make sure......it's the greatest vicious cycles I ever got into

Laura thanks for linking to that article, I loved it. I started running last August to help me deal with cravings when I stopped drinking and now I am completely hooked on running.

I've been running since early january to get ready for a 10k. I was skinny fat. If that makes any sense. Since I cut the booze and started running I've lost 16 lbs. Great addiction
