Be Smart and Safe
Always check with your health care professional before you begin any aggressive, new exercise routine. Make sure to devote some time to stretch before and after you run.
Here are five stretches to help you stay safe as you move a mile a day.
Hip Flexor
Stand tall, step your left leg about 1 to 2 feet in front of your right, and bend at the knee. This should pull on your right hip flexor (the front, top side of your right leg).
To get a better stretch, bend the left knee a little deeper (without your knee going over your ankle) and push your pelvis forward. Hold this stretch for at least 20 seconds and repeat on other side.
