Saturday morning was "Long Run" day. I thought it would be a great opportunity to test run in my new "sponsored" Rockets CompresSox. Big up to Jodie of Peak Performance Fitness, who was happy to arrange a pair of sox for me, told me all the science about how they would support my muscles as I ran, reducing vibration, improving temerature control and increase oxygen to the muscles as well as offer post exercise help in removing lactic acid from the muscles. They also help to prevent pooling of blood in the legs, which speeds up the recovery of damaged muscles.I am really enjoying them for my calves! Now my hamstrings feel like they could use some extra help and recovery too!
I've been told they are also amazing for long distance travel, so I will definitely be wearing them on the plane to Australia.
Gotta go iron some school shirts for the boys for the week!
