I was just reading in another published web place the following about recovering after a marathon:
"Ideally you won’t run for about two weeks; any form of cross training is OK, but early running could hurt more than help you. Starting in week three you can begin incorporating light running. By week four you’ll be back on track and ready to go."
Is this the same sequence recommended for BF/M runners? I haven't run any races since starting back up, but I've noticed that my recovery time after even longish training runs is about no time at all, especially when I'm running really BF, and my form holds true.
I don't expect to be going to any dances after my inaugural Halloween 10 mile trail run, but neither do I expect to be hobbling for a week or two.
Comments?
