I started running last year and energy level and fitness (and weight) definitely improved. Well recommend. Build up slowly though, it's easy to get injuries.

Long runs of ~1.5hr I now actually find relaxing, while listening to a podcast (can be tech related to keep up to date with your favorite tech, or ofc. just entertaining).

Yes, running is great. During last summer it was a part of my routine. Highly recommend as well, but as you said, take it slow at the beginning. Especially after a long period of not doing it.

Usually, I did 10-12 laps at my local stadium.
