In-Between Run
Oh, do I feel my body aching from yesterday's run! I started out with some stretches in the am and did it through out the day. I took my 30 minute run in the evening on the greenbelt. Once again the weather was in my favor and it felt very good to recover from the long run. I am still in some pain but have been doing some stretches to alleviate the body ache. I am drinking a lot of water. Run was good overall and I look forward to running with the team tomorrow!

Just be sure that these "in between runs" are EASY EASY! The primary purpose is "Active Recovery"... just getting the blood flowing to the tissues and flushing the lactic acid out of your muscles so all the muscle microtears can heal faster. If you go too fast, you're just breaking down more instead of actually repairing. For improvement, rest and active rest is just as important as the harder runs themselves! Keep on Truckin' Madi!
