Yes. It's my meditation moment. I don't have to think about anything other than my posture and movement. I just put on the music I like and go. It also helps relieve tension and frustration when something bad happens during your day. And I feel great afterwards. That post-workout high is real.
That's how I feel with running and cycling. Moving meditation has always worked better for me than trying to sit still.
The first 1km or so can be rough, but that's just finding where your rhythm is for the session.
I need to get back into running.
