Finally, I have a study which backs up what I have experienced for years. I am interested in anyone's thoughts on this. It is no secret that I've been running for years, since high school. I did a pretty intense run yesterday and I LOVED it. Some of my friends claim that they get nothing but pain from running. I have no reason to doubt this. I had some serious knee problems when I was training for my marathon. I really do understand how it might not be enjoyable. But obviously, for those of us who do run, there must be something that motivates us to keep running. For those of you who don't run, perhaps you'll find this motivating.

I've had a runner's high before, but only once. And it was very short-lived. It only lasted until I hacked up my lung. I'm impressed that you can get one. And that you ran a marathon.
oh how i wish I had the motivation to run! But I know what a surfing high feels like! Penetrated your entire being and you literally feel invincible and like you can conquer the world after a great surf session. btw, i love you chantal!
and i think i finally fixed the comment thing on my blog!
I love running! I could atch others do it all day!
