NSAIDs and DOMS



I've been working on an update for my entry on Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) and I've made an initial update to my entry on NSAIDS (Ibuprofen, etc.) and DOMS - http://fellrnr.com/wiki/NSAIDs_and_Running#NSAIDs_and_DOMS
 
You can expect the main update to DOMS treatments in a few days, though it may take longer as there is a lot of research to read through.

Calories burned running and walking



I've updated my page on the Calories burned running and walking. The page now shows the values based on the weight you input, giving Calories per mile/Km as well as Calories per hour. I also have a chart showing the pace you would go up a hill if you kept the same effort as running on the flat. http://fellrnr.com/wiki/Calories_burned_running_and_walking

Updated VDOT Calculator's Long Run Difficulty



I've tweaked my calculation of the relative difficulty of different length and pace long runs that's part of my VDOT calculator. I'm now using a formula for working out VO2max pace (vVO2max) rather than assuming it's mile race pace. http://fellrnr.com/wiki/VDOT_Calculator
