What does it feel like?<BR/><BR/>I don't know if the running itself ever gets easier, but I think the "I hate this, I hate this!" voice in your head shuts up eventually.<BR/><BR/>My dad asked me the other day, "Do you actually ENJOY working out?" I told him, "Not always, but that's why I love it."

We usually have 'easy' runs after a hard workout or race. But there was always someone in our group that decided to pick it up.
