“Feed your spirit, encourage someone who needs it, organize a charity day… take care of your body, share the love, and have an awesome day.”
Ricardo Housham
It is suggested that you receive a deep tissue massage about three days before the event to work out the existing tension in your muscles, and ready them for strenuous, physical activity.
Then, the day before get another massage. This one should be more focused on stretching and lengthening the muscle fibers.
Finally, a few days after the event is over, reward yourself with another massage, but this time, less vigorous. Now you want to focus on relaxing those tight muscles you relied on to power through the race.
