Back in HS I loathed running, it was the worst part of every sport Football, Basketball, etc.. I also did track but only pole-vault (exibition 400m). Anyway, I am thinking that maybe I hated the running because it was always at 10/10ths (coach screaming at you or actual races in track) rather than semi-relaxed????
So do you guys find running a relaxing way to exorcise or is it as bad as I remember

I NEED to do some consistant form of exorcise and I have an awesome trail system behind my place. Basically just looking for experiences/insight.
