Article on Cramping
The New York Times today has this interesting article on cramping. What puzzles me is the stat they use that 39 percent of marathon runners have experienced cramps, which seems remarkably low given the pounding that muscles take during the race.
I post this article: I get a massive calf cramp following the Cherry Tree 10-miler today. (My muscles had tightened up, and I know I didn't drink enough water). That'll make running interesting the next few days.
