I've read recently that a cold bath/shower before running is recommended to slow down the warming up process (sound like an oxymoron)!! I thought the idea was to warm up properly before running to avoid injury - how are us beginners supposed to make sense of apparently conflicting ideas?

I believe Paula soaks herself in iced water after a run, but I should save such nonsense until you're going for a world record.
Us beginners apply common sense to all theories until we know better ;-)
But you have to be quite brave....:o}

Some russian ultra marathon guy spents a couple of seconds in an ice box followed by an intense session.
I saw a man on stage once driving nails through his cheek
am not going to try that either
or sitting in a glass box in a nappy
or playing Russian Roulette on Jersey .......
Personally, i went with the approach of it was too hot to run and therefore sat in the garden with a nice cold chablis
