About this episode

Dan and Owain discuss the recovery process after running a marathon and their personal approaches to returning to running post-race.

Dan & Owain round off the marathon series, with a discussion about the stress and strain your body has just been put through over the course of 26.2 miles! There's a lot to recover from post-marathon, some of which is obvious, and some of which is a lot more nuanced and less understood. They then talk about their approaches to returning to run after a marathon, or other big races! The Physiology of Endurance Running podcast is proudly sponsored by SOAR.
