Love running, shame my achilles doesnt hold up to it, never can have a better feeling than runner's high, best feeling in the world.
Is that the feeling you get right after you stop?
No its the feeling during, the endorphins, the feeling of freedom you feel, nothing like it.
Never got it in all the running I did. Guess thats why I hate it.
Everyone hates it at first, Id say when you can run around 4 miles easily enough is when you start to really enjoy it.
Went on 5 or 6 miles runs in the military and just never got over "this sucks" feeling.....but maybe I just don't get the endorphin release.
I think a big part of it has to be that your doing it of your own choosing and an enviroment you picked also.
Could be right. From playing sports growing up, running just to run, was usually punishment as in "get a lap" or running suicides in basketball...haha....and of course the running in the military at 5am was shit....
The military has an amazing ability to suck the fun out of all activities.
haha, ROFL....that is a FACT! Running obstacle courses can be a fun way to stay in shape, but not the military way. Same with organized PT....it was always nothing but a pain in the ass.
Hey,finally butting in on a conversation you know something about
I see running as punishment. And I love how runners always say "I feel so great after I finish...." Well, of course you do, you aren't running anymore.
