Hi everyone, I am just a beginner for the london marathon this year and I want to know how people feel about compression socks - do you use them during or after the run for the most benefit.

thanks

I read that the compression socks have been shown in studies to stimulate blood flow, helping legs recover faster from a hard run  but i've never given them a go myself
