My hip and abs took all the travel my ankle and knee did not. It was terrible, the core is used for everything.Paulie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17307048640649311126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-67157596505371684622011-09-21T17:42:23.637-06:002011-09-21T17:42:23.637-06:00I've seen that video before...so accurate.

Yay! I'd say Sunday was the worst day for me too. On Monday I went for a glacially slow walk around the neighborhood and wondered what people were thinking of me (probably added to the weirdness that I was still in my PJ pants like a college student). Today I feel normal again, even went for a slow 20-minute run. After past marathons, I've been sore for a week.<br /><br />I love that video!Terzahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10617301871875902162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-46091982616505993572011-09-21T16:15:00.665-06:002011-09-21T16:15:00.665-06:00Ha, quads take a little beating there Mr. Downhill...Ha, quads take a little beating there Mr. Downhill for 13 miles??? I remember feeling exactly the same way last year. It's always amazing when you run a downhill race like that, at the time you feel fine, but obviously you are stressing your quads a lot more than you realize. Great job again on the great race and PR!Jim ... 50after40https://www.blogger.com/profile/14165153305680378261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-2536319600953691222011-09-21T16:09:10.231-06:002011-09-21T16:09:10.231-06:00That video is hilarious.

Thanks jill for the tips and I agree that if you don't keep moving, even just a little bit the soreness is a lot worse.MAYBERRYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10311824634489107455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-59446057539926080142011-09-21T14:36:48.302-06:002011-09-21T14:36:48.302-06:00Marathons always eat my muscles alive!

Wasn't expecting it that soon and I basically fell on my face the moment I tried to get up from the nap. Good news is it should only get better!Britt @ Chicago Runner Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15628838959053342745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-32675144831669236982011-09-21T13:36:29.774-06:002011-09-21T13:36:29.774-06:00I was expecting Monday to be terrible awful, but y...I was expecting Monday to be terrible awful, but you know, it wasn't that bad for me. The worst, by far, was Saturday! Holy cow. I don't know if it was the fatigue mixed with the soreness, but I thought seriously about investing in a wheel chair. It might of helped that I took ice baths on Sunday and Monday and was religious about taking my pain meds.<br /><br />That video cracks me up!

I also use the foam roller a lot. But the key for me seems to be slow, easy running. After my first marathon I waited 3 days to run and was sore for 3 days. The next one I waited two days and was sore for two days.... I figured out that as soon as I ran the bulk of the soreness went away. Hope you are feeling back to normal soon! :)SupermomE13https://www.blogger.com/profile/11305105357197956694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-31527330551085601532011-09-21T09:36:40.642-06:002011-09-21T09:36:40.642-06:00After watching that video, I don't know if I w...After watching that video, I don't know if I want to run a marathon! ;) I'm just playin'.

I remember when I ran St. George in 2008, I had some issue with my knee after the race (never felt it during) and it swelled to the size of a grapefruit. Was not fun getting in the rental car and driving to Vegas to get my flight home. And sitting on that plane was excruciating! I think that stupid knee was swollen for a solid week!! <br /><br />Do a lot of squats and leg extentions to build up those quads, they'll hurt less for the downhill races...and make you faster! :)Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174883718651790845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-2015396640136011282011-09-21T07:28:54.109-06:002011-09-21T07:28:54.109-06:00totally agree! monday is the worst! on sunday i al...totally agree! monday is the worst! on sunday i always think that it could never be any worse than it is...then i wake up monday and wonder if i will ever be able to walk again. those canyon runs...they get ya every time.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17378429616486417815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1762797438051684168.post-3382497690747593152011-09-21T07:12:02.450-06:002011-09-21T07:12:02.450-06:00I am always sore in my hamstrings.
