Recovery Guide for the Average Woman - 100 Meters Run

A female runner typically needs 2-4 minutes to recover. She should drink 200-250ml of water and spend 4 minutes doing an active cool-down. Since women tend to run at higher core temperatures, proper cooling is essential. While no special nutrition is needed, she should pay attention to her hamstrings, which often carry extra tension. Once her heart rate settles, she's good to resume normal activities.
