So I managed to hit 10miles today. It was a slow 10 miles but it was 10 miles none the less. Epsom salt bath for me tonight, but steadily working my way to participating in the Belfast Half Marathon in 4 weeks time!

Hope your bath relieves any aches and pains!

Are you following a training plan? Sounds like you’re on track to be ready for Belfast.

Yes following a plan. Hoping to hit 11 miles next week and then start tapering after that

Hi Tag49, what are the benefits of Epsom salts in the bath? 😁

They help reduce inflammation, smooth aches and pains, and draw out toxins. I feel it helps me recover more quickly

A slow ten miler followed by a salts bath soak sounds bliss to me 😀
