If you read Danielle’s blog Live, Run, Grow, you will know that she has A LOT going on right now! New job, moving to a new state, the Disneyland Half Marathon…all super exciting! Because of all this, she is taking the month off from her Yoga for Runners series, so I thought it would be a good time to do a quick recap of all of the great yoga tips she has put together in the last few months. You can click on the link to each topic to read the full post.
Warm Up & Cool Down Routines
A lot of us (myself included!) do not take enough time to do warm up and cool down stretches, however they are key to staying injury free.
Legs Up the Wall
One of my all time favorite recovery poses (thanks to Danielle) that helps recirculate fluids through those tired legs.
Love Thy Feet
Since your feet are pretty important when it comes to running, you want to take care of them so you can keep running pain free!
Happy Hips
Hip stability and flexibility are key to efficient and safe running. Mobility in this area will help you to increase speed and effectiveness of your runs.
Hotel Room Yoga
With the beginning of runDisney race season, many of us will be staying in hotels over those race weekends. But even with limited space, you can get some great stretches in so you perform at your peak!
Danielle will be back in September with some more great Yoga for Runners. Best of luck in all of her new adventures!
