There is a thing highly recommend to runners, especially after a race or hard workout.
It's a thing you could even say is considered practically mandatory.
Well, I WILL NOT DO IT. NOT NOW, NOT EVER.
What is this thing that I cannot accept?
It is the cold shower. CAN'T. WON'T. HOT SHOWERS OR DEATH. MUSCLES, SUCK IT UP AND TAKE IT.
Thank you, that is all.
Can you stomach a cold shower? How about a tepid-to-warmish one? How does it not make you want to cry? I'm asking.

I always at least START with the shower hot, and then if I feel like I could use a cool down, I will gradually decrease the temperature to cool, but I don't ever just shoot right out of the gate with a cold shower. Yuck.
ReplyDeleteYou're still way ahead of me - if anything, I make the shower warmer as I go along!
DeleteYay, Dr. Horrible! One of my favorite quotes.
