Run in Mud Obstacle Race Training 10/17/16

Today's workout is a recover workout and works great for the first few days after you give it all you've got in a race. Just to keep the muscles moving and warm with a little focus on the core.

Stretch and rotate joints and muscles

Do the following 4 times over the next few hours
10 push ups
10 air squats
20 leg lifts

Walk

Get a deep tissue or sports massage.

If possible, make massages part of your workout. My massage therapist applied gentle Swedish massage pressure. I thought she was digging in with some deep pressure. However she assured me that due to the tension and pain that she was treading lightly.
Some pointers:
Ice regularly even if you don't have pain Massage front of legs with light pressure. There is fascia there that you can damage if not careful.
