That it isn’t just “run and you’ll get the best high of your life”. For some part, you have to work towards running being fun and giving you that “runner’s high”. Until that point, it can be difficult to persist through and easy to make you disillusioned.
Four years in and I’m still waiting for the high.
Fitter, stronger, healthier (both mentally and physically) but often it’s still more of a grind than something I enjoy.
At least it’s a habit now.
I felt that way at 4 years. I’m at 7 now and it no longer feels like a grind. The major difference for me is that I started following detailed training plans 2 years ago.
