Answer 4

if you are used to doing these distance runs while smoking, and this is the first time youve experienced something like this, then it is probably not directly a result of smoking. it might have been a lack of fluid or carbs in your system before you started the run. your body might have been low on energy prior to the run from lack of sleep or from doing other chores in the day. obviously smoking hinders your body's ability to get over these scenarios, but something else was the main reason you felt like you did today.
