what is the difference between stride and pace? and i had my first cross country practice today & im a little sore, so any tips on getting the soreness to go away quickly?
viciousxpunk answered Wednesday August 1 2007, 1:07 pm: pace is the speed that you are running, how fast or slow, and stride is how far you are moving your legs while running. for soreness you could try minor pain medication, gold bond muscle cream, or a hot bath with epson salts. good luck.

The only thing I can think of to help with soreness is take an ibuprofen and run a hot bath. Your muscles will get used to running long distances surprisingly quickly, so just keep at it and before you know it, you'll be running 5 miles with ease.
Good luck! [ die_romantic_xl3's advice column | Ask die_romantic_xl3 A Question ]
