I've been running for a few months now and I'm still waiting for this elusive 'runner's high' everyone talks about. Is it just a myth or am I doing something wrong? I've had a few decent runs, but I've never felt that supposed rush of endorphins. Is it only for the more experienced runners or am I just not pushing myself hard enough? Anyone else out there still waiting for that high?
I've experienced the runner's high a few times, but it's not something I can rely on. For me, it's more about the sense of accomplishment and feeling strong after a good run. Don't worry if you don't feel it every time - it's not a measure of your progress or dedication. Keep showing up and putting in the work, and you'll get there!
I've been running for years and I can tell you, it's not a myth, but it's not a guarantee either. For me, it's more of a gentle buzz than a rush. It usually kicks in after a longer run or a tough workout. Maybe you just need to push yourself a bit harder or try a new route to mix things up.
