Towards the end of my long run last month, I felt that it was swelling of my leg muscles that was limiting my progress more than anything else. I know that the real answer is to run more miles in training so that I develop less swelling but I got to wondering if there might be any benefit in wearing compression leggings.
Would they reduce swelling? Do they enhance recovery like some manufacturers claim? Has anybody got any? Where's the best place to buy from? Would I look a complete tw*t in them?
So many questions...
