Yup... there is a nationwide kickball organization (WAKA) which plays seriously, and a loose association of leagues (indie kickball) that play a more recreational game. My league is part of the latter. In addition to playing a fun game, we drink plenty of beer (have a beer sponsor, actually), our uniforms are more of costumes (zombies, commandos, elderly, Frenchmen, etc) and there are often skits before, during and after the games. It is a hugely fun part of the summer!

| Go figure that this morning I wake up, and the soreness is gone from my muscles, just beckoning me to go out and do another easy run. It's taking all I can not to head out this morning for an easy jog...fortunately, I know what is best for me at this point. I'd rather not run for a couple of days than not run for 4-6 weeks. |

If you feel good, run....but run short & easy. I don't think that anyone was saying to stop running completely. Just take it easy, lay off the intervals and run easy for a while. |

personally, I run a lot of little 3 milers,and 4 and 5. those are my rest days. sometimes they are doubles.
intervals during highest week ever right after a marathon? Not a good idea.
and also, for me, anyhow, it's not the big week that hurts. It's the little week after that. I hate cutback weeks, they hurt like hell, but you need 'em.
Proper training is all about stress and recovery. You need both to improve. |

| So the general concensus would be that today would be okay to run 4-6 miles at about a 9 min mile or above pace? |

| Take a briskly walk. Do not run. |
