Recovery runs

[Sweder]

I recommend getting yourself a headtorch (I've got the 2 LED Hope; I think it's about 240 lumen) and give it a go Sweder. Off road running at night is a whole new world. Just make sure you stick to inland routes when it's foggy.

Agree totally re: PF - BF would only make that worse. I suffered a nasty bout of PF about 18 months ago which prompted me to look at BF running in the first place. It may be coincidence but since I started mixing in the BF (frantically searches for wood to touch) I've not been injured at all.

Night running really appeals G-Man. I occasionally dance in the twilight across my local hills, racing the darkness on the return leg after chasing the setting sun into the west. I've not tried a head torch. I imagine the bobbing light might make one a little seasick at first. On my 'to do list' now, thanks.
