Here are some great suggestion from the fans:

  • Do a swim day rather than a run day.  (I will be doing this as soon as I get my swim stuff organized.)
  • Amino acids (Hammer Endurance Aminos are great) and water-running. (Water running sounds delightful right now!)
  • Cherry juice for inflammation and coconut water for potassium.
  • Arnica Cream or gel

These sound wonderful!  Do you have more ideas?  Add your suggestions to the forum discussion!
