Is there a running equivalent of a recovery ride?

I did a fast (for me) 10km yesterday and I’m quite sore but I’m craving the buzz this morning.

I think I can properly get into running. I find I get that rush much quicker than I do with cycling and seem to have plateaued on the bike by getting spat from road races every week or clinging on to finish 25th.

I’ll keep my hand in on the bike and do some duathlons etc but I’ll NEVER go sleeveless.

Yeah same principals apply I think. Keep it really low intensity, watch your HR if you have a device that will let you do so or use breathing as a guide. I sometimes do a run with my mouth closed to keep a lid on things.

Thanks.

That’s what I tried but it turns out I only really have one speed. I actually felt fine once I’d warmed up.
