Yes, the body responds to exercise by getting ready for more, and it sounds like that’s what’s happening to you. Rest day, so you’ll have to find another way to burn that energy off today!

Yay, just go steady though. Slowly, slowly is,the way to nail these runs

Don’t get all gung-ho 😁. Keep it down 😃

You can let rip much further down the line 💪😁👍😃

Congratulations on reaping the benefits of all those endorphins!

I find in the hours following a run I love it so much I want to go again that night or the next day. I take the rest day because, rules.

But then something weird happens on the next scheduled running day: I get a strange anxiety and don't think I can do the run. It's like that day in between makes me forget that this is something I can do. Weird.
