Earlier this week, I did something potentially very stupid and signed up for my first marathon. Not only does this mean I’m going to have to run 26.2 miles in a row, but I’m going to have to cover endless miles in the weeks and months leading up to the big day.As any runner knows, that means I need a recovery plan. After a long run, I’ll have to knead my aching quads, hamstrings, and glutes back to health, so I can go again the next day. To help, I’ve decided to snap up thePrime Day dealson this Therabody Theragun Mini 4th Generation. Check out the deal in full below:

Like the otherbest massage guns, this pocket rocket uses percussive massage and swappable heads to get into those hard-to-reach creases and nurse aching muscles back to health.

It’ll also go in my travel bag so, when I’m doing long runs away from home or the office, I can take a quick 10 minutes and knead some of the strain away post-run without hauling a large, ungainly handset around. It’s also cheaper than most full-size handsets too, clocking in at just $159.99 right now.
