Yup,
I was thinking along the same lines exactly- antidepressants perhaps affect the amount of brain chemicals released during exercise- I remember reading somewhere that AD'S are stored (or present in) bodyfat, and that during lenghy aerobic exercise, more if it is drawn into the bloodstream (hence the brain) as the fat is metabolised.That may be nonsense however, but something definitely happens post exercise to muck up the chem. balance.
With effexor, I was also weakened- infact, I'd get very overheated and literally foam at the mouth on longer bike rides or runs! it did ease off with time though.Worst of all was zispin/remeron- would cycle in zig-zags and be incoherant for hours afterwards.Started to use bike-rollers indoors when I crashed down into a roadside stream....
