The seratonin floods your brain because your muscles are starting to ache, and it's to combat pain. I love it too: I also get it when I bike up a hill, then get to fly down it.

Cardio is what makes exercise fun, otherwise I probably wouldn't move away from my screen and my caffeine. Weight lifting and yoga are boring. Running and biking are the best.
