Zero Week

I couldn't believe how many aches and pains I had last night and throughout the day. And then it struck me. This was the first major race where I hadn't had a massage a day or two before the race. Obviously it has made a difference. I went to the Aquatic Center and did my own version of water therapy - walking laps and bringing my knees up and down. I also stretched a lot in the water. I took an Epsom salt bath last night and again this morning. Throughout the day I wore a knee band. It's almost 9:00pm and I am feeling less sore. I hadn't felt this sore since my first marathon.I'm hopeful that tomorrow will be even better.
