  I agree that low fat chocolate milk is an excellent recovery drink.

  Got any of that pizza left? It'd fit nicely.

  All of the above are great suggestions--anything with protein. Here's a study to back up the chocolate milk suggestions

  Runner's World says the best post-run snack is chocoate milk. I drink a chocolate slim fast. Either are good and go down smooth when they're nice and cold!
