15 Days and Counting - Walk Like Frankenstein

I woke up this morning feeling pretty good. Immediately after the 20 mile run, and all day yesterday, I think I walked like Frankenstein. That gives you an idea how stiff and sore I was after the run.

I did use Zoot Compression Socks yesterday, and as the day went on my walking was much easier. This morning I am a touch stiff, but nowhere near the pain and stiffness I had. I really think compression in some fashion will help for the marathon. I am looking at some tights to wear, because I noticed my hips have gotten more sore on these longer runs, and I think that adds to my fatigue, especially once I have passed the 16 mile mark. I would love to see what compression can do for me in the runs leading up to the marathon.

Can't believe the race is getting closer.
