(C: Thanks for your comment. I've decided my runs need a lot more grace to them, and I need to be a lot less harsh on myself. I'm not training for the Olympics (well, I am, but only in my mind). RE: ice baths--on the, uh, "Seinfeld effect"--you know that goes away after a while, right? :-D<BR/><BR/>Sara I agree with you, the ice hurt more than the run did! My cats didn't come in while I was in the bath, but they both wanted to jump in the tub and lick the water afterwards. EEEEEW! I wonder why the water in the tub or sink or whatever is so much more attractive than the water in their WATER BOWLS...maybe it's a forbidden treat or something.

I've started utilizing the ice bath as well. I took one last week after my 18 miler and I wasn't a bit sore the next day! Very pleasant surprise! Although I think the ice hurt worse than the run! A fleece and a cup of hot tea helped a lot. And you definitely need something to distract you from the pain...I spent that 15 minutes watching my cat bat at the ice cubes in the bathtub while trying not to fall in. And the dog desperately wanted to eat the ice cubes (we give them to her as treats). She was so confused. :)Sara McCartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04942635767083902005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-178608432677316600.post-8498759246978759022008-02-18T18:46:00.000-06:002008-02-18T18:46:00.000-06:00So... if this week's last week's next week and, ne...So... if this week's last week's next week and, next week is this week's next week, which week are we running in? I say half. <BR/><BR/>Nicely done on the run and the grace-filled nature of it. I decided last Saturday that I need to do that with my runs, especially the long ones, as well. <BR/><BR/>Yea... the ice bath... I just haven't mustered the inner gusto to attempt one yet, though I have heard nothing but positives as to their effectiveness. Makes me think of that Seinfeld episode too.<BR/>:-DRickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04034531091253691652noreply@blogger.com
