Looking for any advice people have on good recovery drinks please. I'm dairy free so shakes that can be mixed with water please.I've been running over a year now and having done a few 10k's and just starting to be able to get my pace and mileage up
Wednesday/Thursday and try some swimming to asses things, if ok could try some genlty running towards the end of the week. Really depends on how your legs feel though and only you know that. Not one day off but one days recovery for every mile raced. To me
..weird but true), 5-7 minutes on the road (harder surface tougher on the knees).Before injury I was running up to 12 miles in training....that's clearly off the agenda......but does anyone have a good "recovery" schedule? After such a long break should I go back
I've noticed on my easy/recovery runs I'm quite tense in the shin and foot area (especially my toes which seems to bend a bit and grip the bottom of the trainer). If I speed up a little I don't have this problem. So I tried a slower leg turnover
I am hopefully nearing full recovery from a bout of Osteitis Pubis and a strained adductor which has kept me out of action since FLM.Is there any accepted protocol as to roughly how long it will take to reach a good level of running fitness once
I am a bit sceptical, as I know people both on this forum and outside who seem to run at a very high standard without taking rest days.For what difference it makes, the last 6 days have been: Sat 10K MT race, Sun 10.5 miles easy, Mon 5 miles recovery
should actually ditch it and run as normal. Also do anti-inflamantries hinder recovery? I just feel not letting nature take it's course and interferering it may lengthen the recovery.SF Knee supports will not weaken the knee - they make muscle "fire
and was driving 3 days later. I do wish that I'd seen a physio earlier than I did (6 weeks after the op) and they advice I was given by her was that I should have spent time strenghening my legs / knees prior to the op as this would have sped up recovery.I now run
cravings (cheese, crisps & dip, chips etc) I give in to it eat as I think it is my body telling me "I need this now" Ran Paris Mara 3 weeks ago and London mara last week: recovery - good food (as ever?!) with a nod to a bit of extra iron to help
someone to take a look and keep track of the recovery, as I know with mine then it feels fine until I go into the physio who pummels it and then it's sore for a couple of days after, so it's still more inflamed than I perhaps think it is. I'd say Towner
