I do a LOT of stretching. I got shin splints early on and I'm afraid of them coming back to haunt me so I do a lot of deep deep stretches. A good 10-15 minutes before and 20 after.
I keep the stretches a lot longer after. I also work on my flexibility after, each day seeing how deep I can get the stretches. I can almost touch my nose to knee from a standing position. :) Cheers, Erika -------------------------------------------------- ##| -----Original Message----- ##| From: Jason Lemahieu ##| ##| Note that the post-run stretching is probably more ##| important than before hand.
