Ask Gabe: Post-Run Recovery, Fastest Known Times, and Gabe's Favorite Subject
Briefly

My favorite recovery aid is food. However, gentle mobility after a big effort helps; too much recovery work can harm exhausted muscles.
Post-run nutrition is critical. I consider the Dragon's Back Race to be as much about eating as running. Recovery drinks are quick and nutritious.
