Runner's high.  Right.
I had a kickass run on the treadmill today, logging a 3-miler.  It's a bump up from the 2-mile weekday runs; it means that we're going to start picking up the training pace now.  
I took a quarter mile to warm up and another quarter to cool down.  In between, I ramped up to a 11:30 minute / mile and it felt just lovely!  My back pain and calf issues didn't hamper today's 3-mile run.  
I was flinging sweat every which way.  Arms and legs pumping, lungs burning, time crawling.  It was extremely exhilarating to let all my work frustrations out on treadmill.  It was a good, hard run.
Shortly thereafter, I fell asleep on the bus ride home.  I woke myself up with my own snoring / snorting.  
The run didn't give me a high, just a blissful deep nap!

Sounds like a good run! Keep it up! I have had the runner's high, only once, about 5 years ago. Nothing since. Sigh. . .
