Huh. This would certainly explain a lot. I can't get high from cannabis, and I've never ever gotten a runner's high despite doing a weekly 6 mile run for the past 3 years and training hard for boxing.
- chipgap98 11y agoI've only hit runners highs on much longer runs. Like 10-15 miles. Totally anecdotal, but you might need to try going further. Also, what do you mean you can't get high from cannabis?
- realquick81 11y agoThat usually means they don't understand how to use their diaphragm to suck the smoke into their lungs. They suck it into their mouth and then blow it.
- kstenerud 11y agoI mean that I've tried repeatedly, watched everyone else get baked on half the dose I was taking (deep, and holding in until I absolutely needed to breathe), and felt absolutely nothing except that nasty aftertaste. Running itself is pretty damn boring, which makes it hard to do it for more than an hour. It is nice to get outside, though.
- deveac 11y agoI've never gotten "runner's high" either, and I've definitely ran further and longer than than what is required to achieve it according to my runner friends (8 miles). Mostly running is just a mix of pain and boredom for me to the point where I simply cannot bear it. The only way I can run is if there is a goal/agenda of some sort...like playing Soccer for instance.
- jobu 11y agoI definitely get a high from exercise - lifting weights as well as running. Exercise also tends to increase my appetite, especially when lifting weights. I wonder if this is related to the endocannabinoids.
