Recovering and rolling back into training right after running the Jackpot Ultra 100 Mile race was an experiment in itself. Today I share my go-to recovery tactics, which rest heavily on sleep, low intensity movement, physical therapy and lots of food.

I was especially grateful to feature Michele Cazares, my PT, friend and who happens to be the BEST in her field. Check out her practice here: https://www.pptphysicaltherapy.com I can't recommend her enough! Although not able to feature the whole PT session, Michele works on my back and hips often to get me aligned as I have several impacted discs, lordosis, kyphosis, mild scoliosis, a torn ligament, and hips that don't like to stay in place. Thank you Michele- you're amazing!

The O2Health Lab, located in Newport Beach, CA is run by John Parks and has been helping me recover for the past 6 years. Super grateful for the opportunity to rest and rejuvenate in such a peaceful, calming clinic. You can learn more about their services here: https://www.o2healthlab.com
