ABOUT THIS EPISODE
You just crossed the finish line. Now what? We break down the “one day of recovery per mile” rule, the four-week “reverse taper” that rebuilds your volume from 30% to 60% to normal, and why jumping back too soon is how injuries sneak in. We also share their own post-race rituals, from hot-cold-hot baths to compression boots to a Galloway-style walk/run, plus a cautionary tale about running two marathons in two weeks.
