So I have these friends in various cities who are training for marathons or half-marathons or triathlons, etc. One of the friends just posted on Facebook about a 10-minute ice bath after a 24-mile run.
Here's what I found.
It makes complete sense to do it, as it decreases inflammation and soreness, but I would REALLY have to get psyched up for it. I have such an aversion to cold water, period, much less dumping ice into the situation.
Anyone else tried it? Does it work?
