It would be such a plus! <br /><br />I don't know that I can be of any help, my legs are soooo sore today!! I forgot to tell you that I have to run a mile tomorrow for this charity thing! I might be seriously jogging. <br /><br />Oh! And YOU inspire me!Coy Martinezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00144649093762262574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2033550876088006360.post-52766740886737656192011-10-28T10:13:14.357-04:002011-10-28T10:13:14.357-04:00Wow.

That old man tugs at my heart strings! <br /><br />Fatigued legs - I would have said rest, but it sounds like your already doing that. My other suggestion is to wear supportive shoes. Even in the house. No flip flops, high heels, or flats. SUPPROTIVE shoes (like running shoes). You'd be surprised how much you body works without them. Hope that helps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2033550876088006360.post-33057129874287761882011-10-27T20:34:55.207-04:002011-10-27T20:34:55.207-04:00So, my recovery advice is to limit the running aro...So, my recovery advice is to limit the running around. I swear that going about doing errands take more out of you than actual running. I do what I call a "power rest." I get three movies and watch them back-to-back (ish.) Usually the kids are involved. We sit on the couch all day. It's glorious, really. The kids look forward to it. No cleaning, no laundry, no nothing... just good quality rest time with people you love!<br /><br />After a day of doing nothing you should be to go.<br /><br />AND! I'm so excited for you. The NYC experience will blow your top off.
