Every man, woman and child should do a five mile run at least once in their life.
Hell, part of me wants to say that every man, woman and child should do a five mile run daily. But given that I'm probably not capable of running five miles right now myself, that would be a bit hypocritical.
ratbastid's above post describes part of the experience. Toughing it out, going the whole way. Sometimes it's hard, sometimes it's not. Sometimes everything just clicks and you're a goddamn machine. But when you get home, you always feel great.
