Still works, I think. You probably don't need as many ice cubes and no more than 20 minutes. If you do feel you need more, then do 20 minutes, get out and warm up, then go again after a bit.<br /><br />I do shower after because I want to get clean and warm, but I've also showered first and then did the ice bath. I'm not sure if it negates the process to do the shower after, but I know I feel better. If I shower after the ice, then I usually follow up with ice packs on my problem areas (knees primarily). <br /><br />Have fun in Duluth! I've had a few friends run it and they seem to like it. Take it easy on the cobblestone areas!~moe~https://www.blogger.com/profile/10541964562545172837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575216467550704405.post-91384475529200352102011-03-21T05:12:38.222-07:002011-03-21T05:12:38.222-07:00Wow!

The water is too cold to swim in but not enough to make my skin red and it seems to work - I definitely climb into a warm bath afterward.Stacihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612442041125738197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575216467550704405.post-45361153012952200232011-03-20T19:20:35.825-07:002011-03-20T19:20:35.825-07:00I fear my first ice bath.
