RTTC #40 Stretching and Post-Run Recovery for Your Knee When Training for the Disney Marathon

Send us a text

Hey! How’s it goin?

In this episode I’m talking about how to set up your stretching and post-run recovery routine so you reduce knee pain.

I recommend creating a stretching routine that lasts 10-15 minutes after a run to use static stretches for flexibility, and use dynamic stretches before a run in combination with your walking warm up to prepare your muscles and joints for your run.

After you’re done stretching some things to include in your post-run recovery routine to improve muscle recovery are foam rolling, massage gun, hot epsom salt baths or ice baths.

Listen to the episode to learn how to set up your after run routine to optimize your performance for Disney Marathon training.
