Marathon - Destiny User ID: 1779676 United States 12/03/2012 08:58 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The BEST thing that I have ever found in my life: Running.
Sprinting through the woods alongside animals, trees, being a part of nature again, I cannot describe the feeling in words.
If you are ever in a bad mood, just go out into the woods and start running as fast as you can. Don't stop till you can't run anymore, look around you at nature and your spirits will lift. You can feel as every human should, as the native americans felt as they ran like gazelles through the trees, enjoying God's amazing creation.
I was in a bad mood this morning, decided to go sprinting after not running for awhile, went as fast as I could, and the negative feelings were gone.
You can punch things, yell, do whatever you want, but nothing gets rid of anger... it only makes you MORE angry.
Running however releases all your energy, so you have no more to be mad, only happy. When you tire yourself out a lot, your body releases adrenaline and endorphin, making you naturally healthy and happier after getting your heart rate higher.
I don't care if you are 500 pounds and 60 years old, go outside and feel the feeling that has been lost for 100+ years.
It is such a tribal, connecting feeling that is better than any drug.
Run forest, run! |

Not a gym, not a concrete road, but just running on a dirt path through a forest.
Best feeling in the world - or one of them :)

Quoting: Sloane and like I said, you don't need to be in shape, just run as fast as you can, do it a bunch of times when you are angry and you have just turned your anger and bad mood adrenaline into a positive weight loss and health boosting activity. |

Quoting: wisc_natureboy This works too Might not have the same effect on a younger person (20 - 30) but some people do enjoy slowing down and calming down more than running fast. |
