Discussion: MY first ice bath

Subject: MY first ice bath

Message: Well, the first of many ice baths to come has been completed. It was freezing. It took a lot of courage but once in it was fine. I just filled it up with the tap water to hip level and threw the first bag of ice in and hopped in. After five minutes I added another bag and just relaxed into it for the next 15 minutes.
I was planning on a 16.6(10 mile run) but pushed it out to 19.5K to make sure I knew what was in store for me in 2 weeks time. My longest run ever was last week and it was 14.4K and I feel great. I did a pretty good time for me as well and I wasn't pushing it. Go the ice bath!!!
