Haha, I remember those days. Running beats your body up a lot more. I remember those 15+ mile long runs where the only way I would be able to walk the next day is to buy like 15# of ice, run a cold bath, slowly lower myself in (screaming at times!) then dump the 15# of ice in. Oh I would also fill 2 gallon size zip locks with ice and use that for spot treatments on the knees and any sore spots while lounging in the ice water

. Then I would force myself to wait till the last ice cube in the tub melted down. My neighbors probably thought I was performing satanic rituals with all the screaming! Very effective though. .... good times
