Yoga for Runners: Post-Run
Practicing a few yoga poses after a run, when your muscles are warm and soft, will make you feel a whole lot better the next day. Post-run yoga will decrease injuries and improve the health and strength of muscles. Also, tense muscles have trouble receiving enough blood. Stretching improves the muscles' access to healthy blood and oxygen.

I am currently training to run a marathon and this class (plus the pre run and injury prevention) has been an essential part of my training. I started with very tight hips and after doing these classes, I've been able to loosen up and have a more comfortable run. :)
This class (and the pre-run and injury prevention classes) have been a fantastic addition to my routine. This one especially helps keep me loose and feel good after short and long runs. Thanks for posting these!
I have tried this class two times so far and is incredible. Really feel much better after my 5k run. This is going to be part of my routine.
i went for a shorter run today as it is incredibly windy outside. i was a little stiff in the hips and this felt just amazing. thanks so much!
