why exercise? just lay back and do the doobie...
guess you'd really be in great shape if you smoked and ran at the same time, think of the possibilities!
you'd be feeling "real good"...
ATLANTA, Georgia (Reuters) -- The same family of chemicals that produces a
buzz in marijuana smokers may be responsible for "runner's high,"
the euphoric feeling that some people get when they exercise, U.S.
researchers say

I sorta see the correlation, but there's a difference.
Back in the day when I used to run alot (35-40 miles per week), I used to experience runner's high. It's a great, euphoric feeling. You feel like you can run forever and and you just so "click" with whatever song you're listening to at the moment. Afterwards, I felt good, relaxed, and I wanted to accomplish stuff, whether it was food shopping or cleaning, or freelance work.
Whenever I'd smoke, sure, I'd feel great, relaxed, and I'd be so into whatever music, or movie, or laser light show I was experiencing. Then I'd just want to sit around and eat Doritos. Or Oreos. Maybe some ice cream. Dude, anyone want to order a pizza?
I think the study's flawed.

Fuzzy's right. I remember from my track and cross country days getting that feeling at the end of a race. It simply was a senasation of no pain or fatigue. Your legs felt lighter and you felt like you could keep running.
Smoking weed just made me have perma-grin and the munchies.

I'm cool with that.
I didn't run, but I used to cycle 25 miles a day and even though I could get in a zone, it wasn't much compared to the bong hit I'd do when I got home.
