Sounds very much like what I experienced in high school. My dad made me run track because my eldest sister was a star but her career was cut short due to a tumor in her back. I wasn't nearly as good as she was. I ran hurdles, not very well though. I was too short to 3-step the 110 hurdles and too slow to do anything impressive on the 300. I may have received most improved also though to be quite honest.

I've noticed that feel good sense before, but it doesn't come solely from one physical activity. Do you think that it comes more often as the specific exercise becomes more routine?

The more routine it is the more important it is. Once your body's tempered to do exercise it's a necessary part of your day-to-day life. It will do things like improve your mood or vanquish drowsiness. It's good to have.
