> and maybe even have to perform again soon after, it makes a lot of sense to do anything to recover quickly

For running specifically I’m not trying to make my legs stronger, I’m improving cardio. I need the legs to be in good shape for tomorrow’s hard run :)

In running specifically you need the stress to drive adaptation in the muscle such as capillarisation.

If you’re icing after you run you’re missing out on the benefits of the run.
