    I am slowly working into running and I have a ?. What kind of stretching do U do b4 running?

    Stretching? what is this thing you speak of?

    Seriously, we have discussed this before and we all seem to be pretty pathetic when it comes to the stretching...I do the 5 minute warm up prior and 5 minute cooldown (using my HRM as a guide) and rarely do any stretching....don't follow our example though....

    Actually.... I stretch after I'm done with my run. I started with my workout videos and love how it loosens me up and relaxes me. If I don't stretch well, my legs feel tight and stiff for several days. I don't stretch before because it's hard on your muscles and joints, but after (even after my cool-down walk), when everything is nice and warm I sit in my yard and stretch and pet the cats, and stretch some more. Then I'm ready to go on to the next thing.

    Since I am a newbie to this group and I have not even posted a picture, I thought I could let everyone know a little bit about me and you could see who you are talking to by checking out this link.

    My wife and I have adopted two boys from Russia. We found out about our first son from a local news story. The reporter who did that story did a follow up this week (eight years later) because my son just graduated from high school. The original story and the new one appear at the above link. I get to see your smiling faces everyday, this way you can see mine too. I might actually figure out how to post a picture some day.

    I am taking today as a rest day.
