Making the most of your run

Call us on 020 7009 8912 or email Lucy Wells to find out more or to confirm your place.

After your run

For at least a few days after your run, you will need to take it easy in order to recover. To aid your recovery go for a nice easy walk each day for a few days. This will help your legs to recover faster and you will feel better for it.

After about a week, try to do some running again in order to maintain your fitness levels and make the most of all the hard work you put into your run.
