Don't let this happen to you.
This public service announcement was brought to you by my failing memory, race day nervousness and a seemingly twisted desire to inflict pain upon myself.
Something I didn't forget was to bring along some recovery socks!
But mine are completely shot. I need a new pair.
Marcia at running off at the mouth is hosting a Sigvaris Recovery sock giveaway.
I am all about compression. This proclamation coming from the former naturalist runner.
I have seen the light and compression is the way to longer distances with less down time.
Head over and visit Marcia who is not really on a runnbatical because she is still running!
If you know her race schedule you know why.
YIKES!! No body glide?!?!?!?!!?

HILARIOUS> Love it.
OUCH! I can feel the sting from here. I get that on my back all the time, sometimes even with the body glide. I've never seen it that bad. :S
ReplyDeleteoh man, that looks painful. Bet you wont forget again oi. Heal quickly :)
ReplyDeleteOh my word!!! Ouch! Is that from your sports bra?
ReplyDeleteouch ouch ouch! how did this happen exactly. OUCH!
ReplyDeleteNo not the sports bra but the camelbak. It slightly "bounces" and brushes against my back. Something I learned during the last Ultra but neglected to remember! ouch.
ReplyDeleteAgh! Looks painful! I hope it heals fast!
ReplyDeleteOuchy on the back! brushburn? Or CamelBack?
