What percentage of your runs would you classify as "Pleasant"? You don't feel labored, don't feel like your are straining yourself ext. In my first couple months of running I would probably have told you less than half my runs where pleasant. Now a couple months latter I would say 70% are very comfortable and pleasant. Still for various reason I find some very difficult and labored. I guess we can't be at a 100% every day. Our bodies are damn good but not quite perfect. Experienced runners what would you say your percentage is?

Also I wonder how many here always enjoy running? Many runners don't enjoy it at all till they are done. They force them selfs to do it for what ever reason but never actually like it.

Acceptable at a dance, invaluable in a shipwreck.
On good days even a very brisk pace can be pleasant, on a bad day even a slow slog can be very challenging.
All of my runs are pleasant and enjoyable. Some are slower than others but all are done at a nice easy pace. Tom
I'd like to amend my earlier post. A nasty hangover made this morning's run more than a little challenging and at 54 years old I should know better. The good news is that I reached a major milestone in logged miles so I guess than even bad runs can have something good about them. Tom
CONGRATS ON 4000 MILES Tom!!! WOW, What an Inspiration.... with a hangover even..
When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
