Recovery Run, Rest-It’s Almost the Same Thing…

// January 13th, 2012 // Uncategorized

My legs were still killing me today when my window to run was closing quickly.  I took yesterday off but am still sore so I contemplated another rest day trying to reason (foolishly) that I din’t need a recovery run (which is named that for a reason!) and that doing nothing was almost the same as running the 4 miles to stretch, flush out the lactic acid and get out and breathe.

I love that.  You should try that.  “Ahhh, going to my kid’s game…staying home and drinking in front of the tube…same thing, they’re both recreation…whatever!”

Anyway, I ran.  I’m sore.  I’m planning on running 10.5 tomorrow so long as sore is nothing more than taxed muscles.

This is craziness.
