    Correct as usual, Señor Malo. I also think there may be different
    types or flavors - either that or the "high" is strongly informed by
    your sensory inputs and whatever else is going on in your world. Set
    and setting.

    My experience is also like someone else mentioned: I stumbled into a
    distinct runner's high more often in my first two years. Of course I
    continue to get a great deal of pleasure from running, just not that
    same high nearly as often.

    I think at least these two factors have usually been present when I
    found myself in this state.

    - comfortable pace: not pushing it, but also not plodding at the
    slowest possible "recovery" pace
    - new turf: a break from the accustomed routes, whether this meant a
    different state, city, neighborhood, or just a block east or west of a
    well-worn path

    So in my case some part of the equation seems to be "body on
    auto-pilot; mind and senses engaged".

    How about those fuzzy dice hanging from your mirror? And that doggy
    with his head bobbing up and down in the rear window?

    I never met an hispanic with an IQ in the double digits. Mine is 135.

    That's right, paleface: indeed we are all well above 100.

    Har!

    Funny stuff, Guillermo: you picked a # too high to be believable for
    you, yet too low to be impressive to anyone. At least you have your
    comic moments, few and far between though they may be.

    So the high is some subtle measurable rise on pleasure scale? When does
    compare with the orgasm or receieving some award. When I'm zoned out
    and oblivious to the fact that I'm running, I'm high? I'll bet if I
    wore a HRM and a GPS and slid those numbers into a spread sheet and ran
    the pleasure equation I would see "HIGH" blink on my computer screen in
    red?

    Let's just say some do and some don't and why it's such a controversy
    and not scientifically provable.

    ROTFLMAO! That's a good one! A people who can't even figure out that
    rice and beans make you smell, claiming to have an IQ above 100, that
    is truly funny. Of course you disprove your own theory, but hey, you
    are too dull to understand that.

    Sorry, my mistake - that's not merely in octal, but Bill had padded it
    with the standard 10% mumbo-jumbo adjustment. So it's really more like
    124 (octal) which sounds about right.

    Bill, you've not had seven habits, effective or otherwise, since your
    recreational drug heyday; and not only are you thoroughly unacquainted
    with Csikszentmihalyi's work, I bet you couldn't name the large
    midwestern city which is home to the University of Chicago where he is
    a professor. Therefore you've no right to the mumbo-jumbo 10%.

    I grow bored with you, Tee Bee Ahr. Now go run along and play in
    traffic, chew on razor blades, or find someone else willing to
    occasionally quote you so you can reach the majority of the ng who've
    long since plonked you.

    "Don't bogart that joint my man..." maybe it's because I grew up in the
    60's in Woodstock with 'Weed" and 'hash" more abundant than water in
    Louisiana. Let's just say I undertand variuos degrees of "high" and
    running simply soothes my soul but nada on the remotest 'high'. Maybe
    highs are like orgasms and you only allowed N and I used all mine up. 😉

    Speaking of Pickin" ....

    "Why's Everybody Always Pickin' On Me"

    Why is everbody always pickin' on me?

    The morn' that I was born my old man beat up the doctor
    He clocked the doctor cause the doctor said I looked like Chewbacca
    The doctor said sir you're misled sir which infers you mistook me
    I did not mean your lovely wife was shackin' up with a wookie
    What I mean is Wolverine is less hairy than your son
    He's looks like Chewie Baba Booey Baba Booey and Hong Kong Phooey all in
    one
    To put it mild your new-born child's completely nutty fu-fu lookin'
    I'd shove him back into the oven until he is done cookin'
    But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
    Cause my fifteen year-old cousin has less acne
    But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
    Ain't brushed them teeth since 1983
    But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
    Cause you got the grooming habits of a chimpanzee
    But why's everbody always pickin' on me?
    Cause you're white but you got a nose like Bill Cosby
    Why's everbody always pickin' on me?
