Exercise helps to increase the production and release of endorphins. This is part of the sympathetic response of the body also sometimes called the flight-or-fright response that prepares the body for coping with danger. In the case of endorphins they reduce the sensation of pain so the person can keep fighting or running away hopefully long enough to reduce or eliminate the stressful threat, or just a normal result of physical activity is that some endorphins will be released. Sometimes this is called the 'runner's high.'
