    I don’t think that’s really a thing. It’s just a ruse to try to convince you to do more stuff.

    It’s like that “you feel great after running for an hour”. Well I ran every other day for six months, I never felt anything other than sore and sweaty. It’s all lies.

      Did you properly stretch, warm up, cool down, and stretch again? If you’re still sore after 6 months, either your form is off or you have a medical issue. Can’t help you on the sweaty thing. That’s why I prefer to swim/surf

        I was more tired than sore, to be honest. The main point is that I never got to a point where I felt good about running. It was always a chore. After a while I gave up on it because I just hated it.

        Nowadays I just walk because at least I can take in the scenery, stop to look at stuff, look at birds, take pictures and whatever.
