workout for us who typically weight lift, but it is actually just
what we need! There is no other type of stretching, foam rolling or
massage that can relieve my sore muscles and help me regain flexibility
like yoga can.
Here are a few go-to yoga poses I have, and
I’ll even put them in a sequence and repeat for a few minutes. If your
muscles are sore, and you’re looking for a different way to stretch them
out, I highly suggest this simple sequence perfect for beginner and
advanced yogis! I like to hold each pose for a few deep breaths (5-8)
and repeat for as long as it takes to stretch out.
Plank
Chaturanga
Upward Facing Dog
Downward Facing Dog

-If running outside, find an area you can run and with your car, map out 3.1 miles so you know where to start and stop
-Be sure to hydrate before and after the race (as well as during if possible)
-Personally, I suggest enjoying a balanced, portioned breakfast prior to running, but do what works for you
-Go at your own pace; the idea is to complete the distance & improve your own time

So excited to run tomorrow! I signed up to run a 5k in my hometown and this stretching/yoga will be perfect to prepare me! Thanks for all of your hard work and keeping us inspired!
I completed my 5k yesterday with my best time ever!
