everyone has been telling me that after they run or do some other kind of exercise, they feel really happy...i think it has something to do with endorphins or something. for some reason though, i've NEVER felt this after any kind of exercise. has anyone else experienced this?

    I have been running for over a year now and I've only experienced Runner's High a couple of times. When I did it was awesome but it certainly doesn't happen every single time.

    Endorphins & ME are two peas in a pod. I LOVE THAT *kitten* :D

    I don't experience it when I half *kitten* my workout.

    When I run I get mad. I listen to some hard core techno crap and I get pissed off and run harder. When my time is up, it's up and I'm no longer mad.

    i get it 2 miles into the run, every time. my friend who often runs with me says she never gets it, and she does hardcore triathlons and stuff. i'd be curious to know why some people get it and some don't... seems kind of random.
