I guess it's a kind of runner's high. When this happens it usually results in just a few extra kilometers, as I tend to start worrying about overdoing it if I run too much further than that.

If I had done more, I suspect I would have paid for it today. What makes me want to keep going is hard to pinpoint. Yesterday it was just the "wow, I'm sitll running". I had not taken a break to walk or even find a potty. This was a first for me with that distance or time and no breaks whatsoever. A kind of runner's high, I guess. Lately my running has been steadily improving and that helps. Good fast tunes help too. I have new ones on my MP3. I had a run like that yesterday but only added an extra km.
