Avoid these 4 mistakes during your post-run recovery

Congrats on completing your marathon! It’s not an easy task, and for those who know, well, it’s a long distance. But you’ve just completed it, now what?

As you embark on your recovery journey, it’s essential to avoid these common mistakes, according to running coach Fran Bungay:
