A legal high.

Your body makes its own cannabis-like chemicals as you run, and neuroscience research finds they keep rising all the way to the marathon finish line, a possible clue to the runner’s high.

It seems that I have a strong #runnershigh response 🥳 Thank you #kagiassistant for explaining :

"The peak euphoria is transient, but a milder anxiolytic, hedonically enhanced state persists well beyond the plasma half-life of any single transmitter"

That runner's high? It turns out it isn't caused by endorphins.

#Marathon, 100 or even 230 kilometres: #UDE researchers show that the body’s own cannabis-like messenger substances increase significantly even during extremely long runs. The study provides new insights into processes behind #runnershigh. www.uni-due.de/2026-09-01-r...

Running isn’t just cardio; it’s therapy 🧘‍♂️. Each mile teaches patience, discipline, and resilience. From short jogs to marathon training, every step counts toward becoming your strongest version. Keep moving! 🏅 #RunnersHigh #KeepRunning #MindOverMiles

Funny thought: Why is it that we can never explain why we love running so much—but we just do? #RunnersHigh#Running

For me, running isn’t about the euphoria – it’s about the small, everyday achievement of doing something I know will make me feel better in the long run * Get our weekend culture and lifestyle email I am a bad runner. OK, maybe not “bad”. I get out…

Runners High setzt nach 39 min Laufen ein und wirkt ahnlich wie Cannabis.

Ich werde wohl noch ne Woche oder so warten, bevor ich das wieder erleben darf.

running is akin to flying
like Hermes with winged feet
running is a high
that brings us close to heaven

#SundayMorning Sunrise

Seen on morning run. If the moon is bright and I time it right, I can run the Pepco right-of-way so I emerge into the sunrise about a half mile from my house.

Night trail running is a bit scary and precarious, but the #RunnersHigh at daybreak is pure #Nirvana.

Und heeeeute... "Mit" mitlaufen.
Schon ohne Schuhe und es war die lange Hose, die dringend weg musste. 😅 Es wird wohl doch Sommer.

🏃‍♂️ Running Fact of the Day 🏃‍♀️

Just 30 minutes of running can boost your mood by releasing endorphins! That “runner’s high” is real, it’s your body’s way of saying, “Thanks for taking care of me!” 🧠✨

Need a reason to run today? Happiness is just a few steps away.
