This news story tells us that aout 6% of athletes continue to smoke, even as they are training. It seems incredible that athletes who are trying to achieve the best possible performance would continue smoking.. but perhaps that is a testament to how addictive the habit is. (does it go without saying, that the best remedy remains prevention: if you don't start, you don't have to quit?)
