I did post a link on my Facebook wall!<br /><br />I usually recover from long runs and races with a Muscle Milk or Vitamin Water, and then a heavier meal within an hour. It takes a while for me to be able to eat anything substantial after a hard run.Sesahttp://sesainstride.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582324006220520894.post-69183712679084220812011-08-23T09:22:36.628-07:002011-08-23T09:22:36.628-07:00I stretch and eat to good breakfast or lunch.

Not kidding, favorite beverage. (5th grade lunch hour was obviously the peak of my existence.)<br /><br />I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to run the Giant race! I'm a huge Giants fan, totally missed the boat on registration and would love to use it as my long run on Saturday!

Not a regular milk drinker, I did try the chocolate milk at the SF Half Marathon and thought it tasted great. The Giant Race would be a perfect prep for my upcoming second marathon ever in Sept at San Jose. May be I will see you there?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12058903372720262320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582324006220520894.post-29925085516236427702011-08-22T23:49:03.533-07:002011-08-22T23:49:03.533-07:00*facepalm* Haha, never mind I answered my own ques...*facepalm* Haha, never mind I answered my own question.

I also just bought some epsom salt so was gonna try those baths since they're so highly recommended. (Although I'm not really a bath person, to be honest)<br /><br />Are you running the Giants half? I might tag along for some of it as bandit (or maybe as a registered runner?????? heehee jk) as part of my 18 miles this weekend.audgepodgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07589920897176813735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582324006220520894.post-20011193698507361042011-08-22T23:44:22.181-07:002011-08-22T23:44:22.181-07:00You are a blogging MACHINE!!!!

Can you use "either" and "too" consecutively correctly?XLMIChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268964638359962511noreply@blogger.com
