Does anyone actually enjoy working out?

I can imagine people having fun getting lost in the flow of playing a competitive sport. I've also heard some people experience a post-workout high. But does anyone actually feel pleasure in the moment while lifting weights, jogging, cycling, etc?

If so... what does it feel like? Is there anything the rest of us can do to cultivate such a mindset?

I like running, I had a knee injury and I miss running so much. I really have to make myself do weights though.

Heh, I’m the total opposite. Get the biggest high doing weight training but I will tantrum like a 5 year old if you try to make me run.
