    I've been running for a while, and the only time I get the "high" feeling is when I incorporate sprints (and always outside, not on the dreadmill). When I'm sprinting, I am flying, and while I am at the same time counting down until recovery pace (oh heavens this is rough), I feel amazing.

    Other than that, it is the sense of accomplishment as others have said. People that love running, I think, love the feeling of accomplishment. I love the fact that I can say I've run 65 miles this month, and watch people's jaws drop. It makes me feel strong, and empowered. Like I'm in complete control of this portion of my life.
