Gaslighting Yourself Into Running

discovered a buddy from college gaslit himself into loving running by applying a nicotine patch everytime he ran, and only when he ran on his fifth marathon

A tweet describes a man who conditioned himself to enjoy running by using a nicotine patch only during runs, eventually completing his fifth marathon. The joke is that an unhealthy nicotine reward accidentally turned into extreme athletic motivation, making self-manipulation absurdly effective.
