Subject: RE: Beach 2 Battleship Iron Distance : Official Threadlakeview - 2010-11-18 6:30 PM still sore here. my BT training plan ended w/the race. i'm clueless now what to do post race - how to resume normal activity. I'd think I need to slowly work back up to some routine volume, say over 2-3 weeks. I did a 30 min bike spin (ez, but no discomfort) on Wed, and 30 min run today (quads & calves sore). So anyone w/experience post full distance? Last year, two weeks after my first IM, I ran a stand-alone mary. I PR'd the half portion (1:30 ) but my body fell apart shortly thereafter. You'd think I learned my lesson, but next Saturday, I'm running a half mary & intend to do it in 1:30. I think it's different for everyone. The key, from what the pro's have passed on to me, is to listen to your body. I can't sit still for long, so I'm already out logging running miles. (Too cold to bike & I despise the bike trainer. ) |
