Ran a steady eight miles during my lunch hour today. I’m still feeling a bit sluggish for some reason and am wondering if last week’s 20 miler took more […]
Post Marathon Run
Just ran an “easy” four miles this afternoon. My legs felt fine all day long despite yesterday’s tough marathon and I think several things helped the quick recovery:
