Recovery Fun Times

On Monday, I rested. Running the day after a marathon is just plain silly, though I will admit I've done it a couple of times.

On Tuesday, I ran three miles on a treadmill at 11-12 minute pace. My quads still felt sore, but I was comfortable taking it slow.

On Wednesday, I ran four miles on a treadmill at 10-11 minute pace. Again, taking it easy is the way to go.

On Thursday, I ran five miles on a treadmill at 9:50 pace. I had the treadmill at 9:30 pace for a while, so I am definitely feeling better.

After a rest day tomorrow, I should be at nearly full strength for some runs on the weekend. With predicted high temperatures in the single digits, I will probably remain indoors.
