trapezius muscles tend to get over worked by newer runners. what tends to happen is most newer runners slouch forward (subconsciously its your body trying to get the 'workout' over with) and seemingly your body tightens up your trapezius to keep you erect. as to not fall forward. so the consistent strain of up and down on your trapezius leads to a strained muscle. try leaning back with proper or even over extended posture (look at photos of long distance runners) and this should clear it up. if you find that you just cant use this method constant pain creams and ibuprofen will be a daily thing.. trust me, i know.
