Yoga is my friend!

After every swim, bike or run I try and stretch to help prevent injuries and to keep my muscles loose and ready for the next training session. It has helped some but I still feel extremely tight in my calf, hip and hamstring area. So this morning I woke and searched on YouTube for yoga for runners. Wow! In just 20-25 minutes I did poses and stretches that felt great! Although I could not hold each pose or even get in each pose the way the instructor did, I was still able to do them in moderation. I am going to continue this each morning. I already feel better today. My muscles feel looser already. I can't imagine what they will feel like after a week, a month, a year etc....
