Traveling and massive muscle cramps
Quote | Reply
Does this happen to anyone else... you travel (either car or plane) and then cramp up with massive charley-horse-like cramps upon trying to workout again? I always wear compression socks when I travel, but have had significant issues with cramps - particularly in my quads.

Most recently, I drove out to Tucson. Drank water and nuun the whole way there yet still got crippling quad cramps upon arriving and working out in Tucson. I returned Monday night and went for my first run tonight - and cramped up 10 minutes into the run - forcing me to limp home. I've been eating, drinking normally since I got home.

Anyone experience this? Tips?

Stop travelling or stop working out. That should fix it.

Right. I will only race in Austin from now on, and I will never ever leave here to go anywhere for any reason. Good thing the Austin Marathon and CapTex are right outside my front door.

Damn, I just made my abductor cramp trying to loosen everything up! This sucks... it's like everything is so reactionary right now.
