I’m not sure if I’d call it a “treat” but to help me recover from long runs on slippery trails this weekend I bought myself one of these:
I’d never used one before, but everyone in the store seemed to think that I’d love it. I tried it out after my run today and it wasn’t as painful as I was expecting but I did find lots of sore spots to work on.

Hey Jenny. Did your roller come with instructions? I am interested in knowing how it works.
Hey William!
Mine came with a few exercise instructions and this website here http://www.fitter1.com/Assets/pdf/FoamRoller_Exercises.pdf shows a few more. Runner’s World has videos of how to use it as well- http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-238-267–13796-1-1-2,00.html
