I love lifting on certain days/splits. I dread leg day, but I love push day. Progress feels good, and even if I don't meet my goal, I usually feel good pushing myself.
I used to hate running. I did a Couch to 5k program that got me 5k ready in a month and dreaded every day of it. And I didn't even do well on the 5k.
But! I went on to train for a 10k, and that actually felt great! After a certain point, I entered some kind of zen and started enjoying it. Is that runner's high? Anyway, I kept up with running, and now each run is almost meditative.
