I am kinda loving the idea, it makes sense! If you go back to my childhood (or even last winter and the one before that, LOL), when we would sit in the hot tub in the winter and then run out and roll around in the snow until we looked like human snowmen, and then jumped back into the hot tub to warm up again. I guess that was our cheap unknown version of this great thermal heat spa idea:) LOL But in all seriousness, I think this would be a great relaxing way to spend a little recovery after a race!!!

It sounds like a perfect post marathon regiment though. I love the sauna and steam rooms at my spa. They're one of my favorite ways to detox. I have an issue with cold baths so I don't know if I could bare the transitions into the cool or cold pools. It would take some serious convincing.
