finished my first half marathon in 2hrs 30 mins, did walk a couple of times so I guess took longer than I expected. But feels good to have finally done it. I would like to know from all of you experienced runners here, how to recover after this race? should I be doing another 21 k this weekend? Thanks for all the support.

    Right after the race walk around stretch. Take an ice bath within an hour if you can stand it. go for a walk the next day will help.
