This will probably be my motivation to continue working out and getting /fit/ again.
Is there a word for this delicious feeling?

Aaaah runners high, it almost got me in trouble once
I was at a party several years ago and they had Just Dance set up, after a couple songs I had my brain pumping me full of chemicals so I ignored my girlfriend the entire night, it wasn't a very fun after party.
