Mondays after a long run are pretty relaxed, so, enjoy the run, enjoy the stride outs, and do the sit ups, pull ups and push ups. Check out Elisha Barnu, who won the LA marathon on Sunday after puking while he was racing at 4:40 mile pace! I spoke to him after his race, and Elisha noted that warm sports drink is not good for your stomach.
