Magic Recovery Smoothie

So it may just be psychosomatic, but I swear that whenever I drink this tasty concoction, I feel fantastic. No matter how crappy the run that preceded it felt!

Herewith is my recipe for an amazing post-run smoothie. It's adapted from a recipe I saw in the September 2010 "Runner's World" magazine:

8 oz low fat milk

5 oz strong, cold coffee

1 frozen banana (if not frozen, just toss in a handful of ice cubes)

2 tbsp Ovaltine (or unsweetened cocoa if you're hard core)

1 - 2 tbsp almond butter

Whiz in blender. Drink while stretching.
