It really never gets any easier, though, but I've only been managing to run 2x a week lately, so that probably has a lot to do with it! Guess I'll just keep on truckin'.

I can only speak from my own experience, but it did not get easier for me until I was able to string together long periods of consistent running 3 days a week. And still there are days that just feel hard. It will come, keep trudging along.
