Did a couple of recovery runs on Monday with a sports massage in the afternoon. 7.92km @4:51 HR 136; nice cool conditions, felt OK but a little fatigued (naturally) but not too bad. I’ve felt worse after races…
Sports massage was just what I needed, although there were only a few sore spots and nothing too drastic. The legs seem to be in pretty good shape. In the evening I thought it might be an idea to do a shakeout effort to flush the muscles of any crap dislodged by the massage. Legs felt slightly wobbly on quite a warm evening, but it was a good thing to do. 6km @ 4:50 HR 135.
Debated back and forth this morning as to whether I was overdoing it by doing another recovery this morning, and I decided in the end I'd feel better for it, and that 30 minutes of easy running isn't much more than a warmup I'd do for an 800m race anyway. 6km @ 4:45 HR 135.
