Did a 20 mile Bike and 1/2 marathon combo race Sunday. Super hot(94degrees at finish), and could not hydrate enough. Cramping like crazy after mile 5 of run. I did however PR my 20 mile time by 3mph avg.

Not sure what I should do to recover and start back training. Any suggestions?

I approach recovery like a reverse taper but with less intensity.  It seems like I recover much quicker if I stay somewhat active.  Maybe start with an easy ride one day followed by a short easy run the next and keep things low key for as many days out as you need before you start feeling soreness disipate and strength return.
