My business partner pissed me off yesterday and I ran off 800 calories. Anyone else ever do that before? lol

    Its one of the reasons I go out at lunchtimes, a break from the office and when people hack you off its a GREAT release. jogging for me is my me time, getting away from the world just going and listening to the tunes.

    I know this feeling! My HOA required everyone to get parking stickers/permits for their cars. I got mine just like I was supposed to. They placed it on my car right where it was supposed to be. Some sticker cop came through one night and put this huge orange violation sticker on my window for not having the decal! WTF??? Apparently he couldn't be bothered to actually LOOK to see that it was right where it was supposed to be? After getting out the razor blade and taking this horrible orange super sticky sticker off my car, I continued on my way to the gym. Had my best pace ever for those 11 miles on the treadmill as i spent my whole time plotting revenge on the sticker cop.

    Plenty! I dunno if there's a difference in burn, but I enjoy my interval/tempo days to coincide with bad days. Yesterday I was in meeting after meeting and banged out good 8x400m intervals.

    Sometimes I relive arguments in my mind while I'm at the gym so I can get the steam to blow lol totally works especially when I'm reaching for motivation and Pandora isn't on its game

    When I'm having a particularly bad day...my boyfriend will tell me to go run (he is NOT a runner) because he knows it relieves my stress and tension...it's my time to breathe deep, and refocus!!! It's the best way to run...I usually end up running longer and further...and sometimes, faster. WAY better than getting a drink instead! :wink:

    Definitely. Runs often turn my bad days into something a bit better. I can use the time to think things through, or completely ignore the world. Same when I swim :).

    Have you not seen the incredible hulk?

    Adrenaline + anger + roids = hulk

    You just need to find roids that will make you green now my friend... and the equation is complete

    Lol yes - had a horrific argument with Himself and ran my fastest 5k by far....then kept on running for another 10 minutes!

    I miss running (had to give it up in favour of other exercises as it caused hip problems).

    I get the same with anxiety (not so fun). Usually I feel absolutely horrible (stomach cramps, panic & palpitations) before I go out to run...and as soon as I'm out there, it just melts away and I can use the adrenaline for something useful.
