Fetchez la vache

I always loved running... it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs. ~Jesse Owens


Ease those sore muscles.
How best to recover when sore from hard running? COLD WATER. Animals stand in cold streams straight after a long hard chase. You could too. WALK. Next day, instead of running take a long walk on undulating terrain, or even around shopping centres. MASSAGE. Once recovery is underway, a good massage therapist will assist further recovery. REST. After massage, walking, or cold water, let the body recover properly by putting the feet up! WARM-UP. When next running hard, make sure you warm-up properly first.
