Clothes and Shoes and Stretching

Clothes and Shoes and Stretching: What to Wear Up High, What to Wear Down Low

Most of us spend a lot of time in our clothes, but when it comes to running, the wrong choice can lead to injury. Some runners wear the same clothes for every run without even realizing that they might not work as well when taken on long or fast runs. It's important for runners to know which clothes are best for what type of running so there's nothing holding them back.

Stretching before a run can help runners avoid injuries and get the most out of their workouts. Stretching is also important after a run to prevent soreness, stiffness, and cramping. However, it's not necessary to stretch on every run; sometimes stretching on alternate days is enough.

What do you wear when you run? Do you change clothes for long runs or speedwork? What clothes do you use for stretching? Share your tips below!
