As great as running is for our physical and mental health, it can also put a lot of strain and stress on the body and mind. So, as soon as you finish yours and unlace your best running shoes, it’s key you put some actions in place that will help you make a speedy recovery. Luckily, Great Britain 800 metre runner, Alexandra Bell, has shared her top four recovery tips and one involves a banana milkshake — yummy!
According to Runners Blueprint running recovery is more than just lounging on the sofa or taking a break: “It involves a series of actions that help your body and mind heal and rebuild after an intense workout." Getting the right recovery can not only help prevent injuries for your future runs, but it will also help improve your overall running performance and endurance.
