Thanks everyone for the tips! It was raining today and I didn't want to take my bike out in it (still not sure about what I need to do after rain rides as far as cleaning/maintenance, so if anyone has tips.. ), so I ended up going for a long, easy run. No soreness, though, which is what I was anticipating. I know I can barely move my legs the day after a marathon so that's what I was expecting to feel.

I'll have to check out that article, though-- I've seen a lot of discussion on here about how females don't need to "carbo load" which is something I've always done for runs-- and I usually do it with whole wheat pasta, bagels, etc and not so much veggies. Thanks!
