According to
this article in Runner's World, ice baths reduce swelling, help prevent injuries, and get rid of crap in your muscles (paraphrased). That doesn't mean they are fun though, or even that they are easier than actually running the marathon. I do feel better today though.
This is the highlight of my Tuesday morning :)
