I've had some great long runs after a race and some that I clearly shouldn't have done. If you had an off race you might not be that beat up. But I have had fantastic long runs after PR races...who can say. I say go out slow and make your decision after 4 miles or so. Hydrate well today and eat well, try to get some good sleep. Maybe go for a short walk tonight to loosen things up.
