I got kinda bummed I was in horrible shape so I started running. I had fun if I did it first thing in the morning before a cig. If it was after I just felt like shit and it was pretty miserable. I always smoked the most at the bar (pack to a pack and a half), so I made it point to try and go a night without it. It wasn't fun but I could did it. I figured if I could do that everything else would be a breeze. I never thought of myself as quitting. I still hold if I want one that bad I can have one. Hell, I have an unopened pack sitting with a lighter around here somewhere. I made it a choice instead of the never again bullshit. I haven't had as much as a drag in over two years and I probably won't, the last time I did it tasted so awful and I couldn't get rid of the taste. The worst part by far is getting your sense of smell back, I still struggle with that a bit. It sucks for a while. You don't feel like yourself for a bit. And I kinda felt like I lost a friend, it was weird. But that shit doesn't last very long. Just expect to be dizzy for the first few days. I slept a lot for a little while early on. Good luck.
