Jog Your Mind
from We Have Concerns Hosted by Jeff Cannata/Anthony Carboni
In their ongoing debate over whether running is cool or stupid, Anthony and Jeff consider the new study which links the euphoric feeling from long distance runs not to endorphins, as previously assumed, but to the body’s own endocannabinoids. On a chemical level, is "runner's high" actually like the high from marijuana? Get all your sweet We Have Concerns merch by swinging by http://wehaveconcerns.com/shop Hey!
